Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs: Secondment

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, pursuant to the Answer of 25 March 2019 to Question 234783 on Department for International Development: Secondment, what teams within his Department the 27 requested roles from the Department for International Development will be in.

Answer

Over 80% of Defra’s agenda is affected by the UK’s departure from the EU and as a result many roles across the Defra group are now supporting work relating to it, either directly or indirectly. Of the 27 requested roles referred to by DfID, 23 were filled and the majority are in Programme Support and Policy roles.
