Tom Pursglove – 2015 Parliamentary Question to the Scotland Office

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Tom Pursglove on 2015-10-28.

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland, how many civil servants in his Department are members of trades unions; how much working hours facility time is claimed by each such civil servant; and what the cost of that facility time is to his Department.

David Mundell

The Scotland Office does not hold information on how many civil servants in the office are members of trade unions. There are no staff with facility time arrangements for trade unions duties and activities.
