Office of Financial Sanctions Implementation: Vacancies

Question

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what proportion of staff posts which are vacant at the Office of Financial Sanctions Implementation.

Answer

HM Treasury and the Office of Financial Sanctions Implementation have been at the front and centre of an unprecedented financial sanctions response. Russia’s unprovoked and unwarranted attack on a sovereign nation brought war back to Europe.

The government has recognised this and strengthened OFSI’s powers to enforce financial sanctions as well as its resources. Information on OFSI staff numbers at end 2022 is available in the OFSI 2022 Annual review available here:
