Civil Servants: Personal Loans

Question

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, how many personnel loans from other parts of the Civil Service there have been into the Government commercial function since it was established.

Answer

The Government Commercial Function is staffed by employees working across many Civil Service Departments. Records containing the detail requested in these questions are not held centrally and replies to these questions would incur disproportionate costs.

The Government Commercial Function (GCF) is a cross-government network of around 4,000 civil servants procuring (or supporting the procurement of) goods and services for the government. It also consists of commercial experts who support departments in managing key commercial contracts, and planning for future commercial needs.
