Shadow Minister (Communities and Local Government) (Housing and Planning)
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer how many employees of his Department have been posted to work in offices of hon. Members of each political party in each of the last five years.
Sarah McCarthy-Fry
Parliamentary Secretary, HM Treasury
No Treasury employees have been posted to work in offices of any of the hon. Members of any of the political parties in each of the last five years. In accordance with the Civil Service Code, Treasury officials are accountable to Ministers, who are in turn accountable to Parliament. It would be a breach of the Code for Treasury officials to act in a way that is determined by party political considerations.
