Written answers

The civil service employees of my Department broken down by grade from Secretary General to Service Officer and by gender for each year from 2016 to the end of February 2019 are set out in the table. Details of the Ministerial advisers and civilian drivers appointed by me and the Ministers of State in my Department are also included in this table. The Department engages the services of a contract cleaning company and therefore, does not employ cleaning staff directly.
