Written question asked by Richard Holden (Conservative) on Thursday, 3 July 2025, in the House of Commons. It was due for an answer on Tuesday, 8 July 2025 (named day). It was answered by Georgia Gould (Labour) on Tuesday, 8 July 2025 on behalf of the Cabinet Office.


Civil Servants: Pay

Question

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, pursuant to the Answer of 3 June 2025 to Question 54280 on Civil Servants: Pay, whether civil servants in her Department that are relocated outside of London will have their pay reduced; and whether civil servants employed in new locations outside of London will lose their London weighting.

Answer

I refer the Rt Hon Member to the answer on 3 July (PQ 63008).

The Cabinet Office does not have London Weighting. There are separate London and National pay ranges. If an employee relocates from a London to National location on a voluntary basis, their salary would reduce to the equivalent point on the opposite pay range.
