Departmental Manpower

Volume 469: debated on Tuesday 11 December 2007

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport how many and what proportion of posts in her Department have been recategorised from back office to frontline posts as classified by the Gershon efficiency review in each year since 2004. (172261)

The Department is committed to achieving work force reductions of 700 full-time equivalent posts by the end of 2007-08. The Department's response to Sir Peter Gershon's efficiency review does not include plans for any recategorisation of posts, only to achieve a net reduction.
