Departmental Pay
Mr. Philip Hammond:
To ask the Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families how much was claimed in reimbursable expenses by Senior Civil Service staff in his Department and its agencies in the last 12-month period for which figures are available. [187533]
Kevin Brennan:
Travel and subsistence (reimbursable expenses) are claimed and authorised online via the Department’s Integrated Financial Information System and are recorded under the general heading of subsistence. To extract the financial data requested would involve disproportionate cost.
All expenditure is made in accordance with published departmental guidance on financial procedures and propriety, based on principles set out in “Government Accounting”. All travel undertaken by DCSF civil servants is undertaken in accordance with the requirements of the Civil Service Management Code. The Department does not have any Executive Agencies.
Mr. Hoban:
To ask the Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families what the hourly rates of pay of all non-permanent staff working for his Department were in each of the last 12 months; and how many staff were receiving each rate in each of those months. [196460]
