<p>Both Houses and the Scottish Parliament organise their communications/press and
public relations functions in different ways which makes it hard to compare figures
directly. Consequently, the figures below simply compare the number of FTEs employed
predominantly on dealing with press/media.</p><p> </p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p>
</p></td><td><p><strong>House of Lords</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>House of Commons</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Scottish
Parliament</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>FTEs employed on press/media</strong></p></td><td><p>5</p></td><td><p>19</p></td><td><p>7</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p><br>
<br>These figures do not include staff employed by either House or the Scottish Parliament
on marketing, digital communications, public information, visitor services, education
and engagement all of which contribute to their work on public relations. We do not
hold these figures in respect of the House of Commons and Scottish Parliament.</p><p><br>No
assessment has been made of how these figures compare with each other.</p><p> </p>
