HL Deb 15 January 2001 vol 620 c106WA
Lord Berkeley

asked Her Majesty's Government:

What was the annual turnover of senior and support staff during the last financial year in:

  1. (a) the Office of Gas and Electricity Markets;
  2. (b) the Office of Telecommunications;
  3. (c) the Office of Water Services; and;
  4. (d) the Office of the Rail Regulator. [HL204]

Lord McIntosh of Haringey:

The turnover of support grades for all four organisations (on a comparable basis) is not readily available.

The turnover of senior civil servants (above previous Civil Service grade 6 level) in the year April 1999 to March 2000 was:

  1. (a) the Office of Gas and Electricity Markets (Ofgem) 3 moves
  2. (b) the Office of Telecommunications (Oftel) 2 moves
  3. (c) the Office of Water Services (Ofwat) 1 move
  4. (d) the Office of the Rail Regulator (Orr) 3 moves

Note 1: The annual turnover of Ofgem SCS staff has been based on best estimates because pre-merger staff records are not held centrally.
