Written question asked by Preet Kaur Gill (Labour) on Friday, 29 March 2019, in the House of Commons. It was due for an answer on Wednesday, 3 April 2019 (named day). It was answered by Harriett Baldwin (Conservative) on Wednesday, 3 April 2019 on behalf of the Department for International Development.

Department for International Development: Secondment

Question: To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, pursuant to the Answer of 28 March 2019 to Question 236571, what estimate she has made of the further number of deployments required from her Department.

Answer: DFID is focussing on progressing current matches into actual deployments and will respond to further requests as appropriate. The work to match and deploy to cross-government priorities is iterative and likely to continue in the immediate future, as DFID continues to support other government departments with increased demands. It is not possible at this point to state with certainty how many more deployments will be required to support EU exit work across government.
