<p>In the run-up to the 29<sup>th</sup> of March deadline, the Department temporarily
reprioritised 532 people to further support critical EU-exit work. In light of the
Article 50 extension to the 31<sup>st</sup> of October, the Department has revaluated
its portfolio work and is in the process of deprioritising these people. Of the original
532 people, 167 continue to support this critical EU-Exit work as of the 28<sup>th</sup>
of May. During this time BEIS continued, and still continues, to deliver on its diverse
portfolio.</p>
