PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Performance Appraisal (24 June 2014)

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales, what proportion of (a) disabled and (b) all other staff employed by his Department received each level of performance rating in their end of year performance assessment for 2013-14.

Asked by:
Mrs Emma Lewell-Buck (Labour)

The levels of performance ratings for staff at the Wales Office were as follows:

• 12.5% were assessed as “Outstanding”;
• 80% were assessed as “Good”; and
• 7.5% were assessed as “Must Improve”.

This is in line with the Ministry of Justice's guided distribution range. The Wales Office is unable to confirm the performance rating for disabled staff as, in accordance with Cabinet Office guidelines, the Department does not disclose information relating to five or fewer members of staff.
