PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Department for International Trade: Brexit (29 November 2017)

To ask the Secretary of State for International Trade, what estimate he has made of changes in the number of staff at each grade and salary band which will be needed in his Department after the UK leaves the EU.

Asked by:
Anna McMorrin (Labour)

The Department for International Trade was established as a direct result of the referendum decision to leave the EU. The Department was established to secure UK and global prosperity by promoting and financing international trade and investment and championing free trade. Since the department’s formation in July 2016, we continue to keep departmental resources under review, which will need to remain flexible, dependant in part on the ongoing nature of the negotiations with the EU.
