§ Mr. BercowTo ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what assessment he has made of regional variations in staff turnover in his Department. [112744]
§ Fiona MactaggartThe Home Office has not made a comprehensive study of regional variations in staff turnover.
However, employee turnover is an important factor in considering payment of locational allowances for recruitment and retention purposes. Her Majesty's Treasury 2003 Pay Remit guidance specifically requires that local pay be considered, and analysis of employee turnover forms part of the Home Office's approach to this task.
