Written question asked by James Cleverly (Conservative) on Friday, 28 August 2026, in the House of Commons. It was due for an answer on Wednesday, 2 September 2026. It was answered by Jim McMahon (Labour) on Friday, 18 September 2026 on behalf of the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government.
Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government: Birmingham
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what was the average percentage attendance rate of assigned 23 Stephenson Street - Birmingham staff in the most recent working week for which figures are available.
- Answer
-
We have provided, for each office location, as at the week commencing 24 August 2026:
- the average office attendance of employees assigned to each office during the week commencing 24 August 2026; and
- the proportion of employees assigned to that office who attended an MHCLG office during the same week.
The attendance figures are not restricted to attendance at an employee's contractual office location. Both the average attendance and proportion attending measures include visits to any MHCLG office.
We would also note that the proportion attending measure does not take account of employees who were absent for legitimate reasons during the period, such as annual leave.
Employees are expected to meet their office attendance requirements over the course of a quarter, rather than in any single week.
