Civil Servants: Location

Question

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, with reference to paragraph 6.7 of Budget 2016, what substantial savings for the taxpayer will result from moving civil servants from central London to 10 South Colonnade.

Answer

10 South Colonnade brings staff from departments together in a single modern and efficient building in an area with lower rents to facilitate a collaborative Civil Service.

Relocating to the East London Hub will enable us to reduce the number of leases required on central London property, delivering anticipated net savings of over £20million per annum.
