Home Office: York

Question: To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether she has plans to move civil servant jobs in (a) her Department and (b) non-departmental public bodies or government agencies associated with her Department to York.

Answer

As part of Budget 2020, the Government committed to relocating 22,000 Civil Service roles from Greater London to locations across the UK, with the Places for Growth Portfolio delivering on this commitment.

Home Office location decisions take into account a range of factors including our operating models, workforce and location analysis. The Home Office will select places that we assess to have the skills, transport links and capacity to meet our needs and flourish in our chosen locations, as well as ensuring locations are suitable for the long term success and sustainability of the Civil Service.
