To ask His Majesty's Government what is the status of the new Treasury offices being built in Darlington; and whether Treasury officials planned to be based there will be relocated to Manchester.
To ask His Majesty's Government what is the status of the new Treasury offices being built in Darlington; and whether Treasury officials planned to be based there will be relocated to Manchester.
The new hub building in Darlington is being delivered by the Government Property Agency and is currently under construction. Once complete in early 2028, it will be the home of more than 1600 civil servants from across multiple departments, including HM Treasury.
HM Treasury’s commitment to at least 335 staff being based in Darlington remains in place, as does the commitment to Darlington being HMT’s second headquarters.
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, how many FTE equivalent staff in (a) their Department and (b) each Arm's Length Body it sponsors are dedicated to fulfilment of the Public Sector Equality Duty (PSED); what the (i) annual employment and (ii) total annual cost incurred is as a result...
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, how many FTE equivalent staff in (a) their Department and (b) each Arm's Length Body it sponsors are dedicated to fulfilment of the Public Sector Equality Duty (PSED); what the (i) annual employment and (ii) total annual cost incurred is as a result...
HM Treasury and its Arm's Length Bodies comply with their obligations under the Public Sector Equality Duty (PSED) in the Equality Act 2010 and carefully consider the implications of policy and other decisions for those sharing protected characteristics. HMT’s approach to PSED compliance is set out on the following gov.uk page: Equality and diversity - HM Treasury - GOV.UK.
2 FTE posts provide support, guidance and training to colleagues across the Treasury on fulfilling their legal responsibilities under the PSED. The information on equivalent FTE posts for the Arm's Length Bodies is not held centrally by HM Treasury.
Ensuring that decisions taken are PSED compliant, including through the provision of well-evidenced advice to Ministers, is the responsibility of the relevant members of staff and teams working on those issues. Accordingly, the Department does not maintain centrally held records of staffing, costs or outputs attributable solely to PSED compliance. HM Treasury also does not hold corresponding information for its Arm's Length Bodies and seeking to obtain it would involve a disproportionate cost.

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, in how many instances her Department has put mitigations for conflict of interest in place for (a) Ministers and (b) senior officials each year since 1 June 2024.

Data on the specific number of individual mitigation measures put in place across all senior officials is held within confidential records and localised systems. To extract and aggregate a precise historical count of individual mitigations since 1 June 2024 could only be achieved at disproportionate cost.

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, if she will make it her policy that income from ticket sales for entry to royal palaces is received by the Treasury.
As set out in the Sovereign Grant framework agreement, the Royal Household seeks to optimise income from non-Treasury sources where this is consistent with the main functions of the Sovereign Grant. In line with this, it charges the Royal Collection Trust for the use of Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle for public admissions. This income is used to supplement the Sovereign Grant to support official activities, reducing the requirement for public funding.

The numerical reasoning test was removed from the previous graduate process in 2020, in line with similar changes made to most Fast Stream recruitment. Decisions on the new assessment process, including whether numerical reasoning tests will be used, have not yet been taken
