Margaret Hodge – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Home Office

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Margaret Hodge on 2016-09-02.

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, if she will publish a list of all secondees to her Department from (a) PwC, (b) Deloitte, (c) Ernst and Young, (d) KPMG and (e) other consulting firms in the last three financial years; and what the role was of each of those secondees.

The Home Office has seconded less than five people from consultancy firms including those listed, in the last three financial years. It is not possible to provide a further breakdown as it would breach the Department’s obligations under the Data Protection Act 1998, not to disclose to a third party, personal information about another person.
