<p>The Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS) was formed as
part of the machinery of government changes in July 2017, by merging parts of BIS
and parts of DECC.</p><p>The BEIS 2017 pay award has not yet been agreed, so details
of staff pay increases are not available for this year.</p><p>It is also not possible
to provide accurate information for pay increases for staff (a) above, (b) at and
(c) less than one per cent for each of the former departments other than at disproportionate
costs. This is because this will require a number of reports to be generated and checked
in both former departments for staff at both Senior Civil Service level and below
in relation to both the 2015 and 2016 pay awards.</p>
