§ Mr. RedmondTo ask the Secretary of State for Education and Employment if she will list by grade the numbers of staff and their cost for(a) the financial year 1994–95 and (b) the estimated figures for the financial year 1995–96, for each executive agency for which she is responsible. [39524]
§ Mr. Robin SquireThis Department has two executive agencies, the Teachers Pensions Agency and the Employment Service.
The tables show staff by grade in each agency for 1994–95 and in 1995–96 with their associated costs. The 1994–95 staff figures for ES are at 1 April 1994 while those for TPA reflect the average over the year. The costs shown for 1994–95 are outturn figures.
The staff numbers for 1995–96 for TPA are actuals as at October 1995 and those for the Employment Service are actuals at 1 April 1995. It is expected that the final 933W numbers for the Employment Service will be smaller. Staff costs for the financial year 1995–96 are expected to match the budget allocation as shown.
