Written question asked by Richard Holden (Conservative) on Thursday, 26 June 2025, in the House of Commons. It was due for an answer on Monday, 30 June 2025. It was answered by Georgia Gould (Labour) on Thursday, 3 July 2025 on behalf of the Cabinet Office.


Cabinet Office: London Allowance

Question

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, pursuant to the Answer of 12 June 2025 to Question 56482 on Civil Service: London allowances, if he will take steps to ensure that the London weighted salaries for his Department's civil servants only apply to employees that work in London.

Answer

I refer the Hon Member to the answer on 10 June 2025 (PQ 56482).

Pay arrangements, including those for London, are delegated to each department. The Cabinet Office does not have a London Weighting Allowance. There are separate London and National pay ranges. An individual’s pay, paid as a salary, is determined by the location of their designated office, as set out in their contract.
