Government Departments: Recruitment

Question

Her Majesty's Government how much (1) has been paid since July 2016, and (2) is budgeted to be paid in 2017–18, to recruitment agents or companies for the recruitment of staff to (a) the Department of International Trade, and (b) the Department for Exiting the European Union.

Original answer

The Department for International Trade (DIT) has paid £1.15m to organisations for services relating to the recruitment of staff since July 2016. Recruitment costs are managed locally by the functional areas of DIT; there is no central budget for recruitment.

My noble friend a copy of the figures relating to the Department for Exiting the European Union will be placed in the library of the House once they are made available.

It has since been corrected.
