To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions if she will place in the Library a copy of the results of her Department's most recent staff survey; which organisation carried out the survey; and what the cost of the survey was. (309835)

The Department for Work and Pensions will publish results in the Library from our most recent staff survey, completed in November 2009 as part of the first cross Civil Service People Survey, after 1 February 2010 when the results become available from the survey supplier.

The Cabinet Office procured ORC International to supply the 2009-10 cross-Civil Service People Survey.

The Department share of the whole 2009-10 survey cost is just under £98,000. This surveyed over 100,000 DWP staff including the Health and Safety Executive. A response was received from over 80,000 people.
