Written question asked by Ruth Cadbury (Labour) on Tuesday, 6 September 2022, in the House of Commons. It was due for an answer on Thursday, 8 September 2022. It was answered by Conor Burns (Conservative) on Tuesday, 27 September 2022 on behalf of the Department for International Trade.
Trade Agreements: Israel
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for International Trade, how many officials in her Department are working on the trade negotiations with Israel.
- Answer
-
The Department for International Trade (DIT) operates a flexible resourcing model to maximise efficiency across our Free Trade Agreement (FTA) negotiations. The Department is currently delivering seven FTA negotiations and the number of staff working on these at any point in time will change depending on the stage and scale of the deal. Staff also often work across multiple negotiations so it is not possible to quantify the number for each negotiation.
As of August 2022, DIT had approximately 460 staff working in the Trade Negotiations Group. This figure does not include other staff in DIT who also contribute to trade negotiations.
