Philip Davies – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Cabinet Office

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Philip Davies on 2016-02-10.

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, how many staff in 10 Downing Street receive (a) home to work travel allowance, (b) a car allowance and (c) subsidised health insurance.

Matthew Hancock

The Prime Minister’s office is an integral part of the Cabinet Office.

No staff receive a home to work travel allowance or a car allowance. Health insurance is not a benefit offered to staff however, due to a TUPE transfer where Cabinet Office brought staff in from the private sector there a smaller number of staff able to claim subsidised health insurance.
