answer text <p>There are processes in place to assure the accuracy of workforce management information before it is published. Workforce information published in the Annual Report is assured within HMRC’s Chief People Officer Group where the information is checked, approved and signed off by the Finance Director. Further internal assurance is carried out by the Audit and Risk Committee, as well as internal verification by the Chief Finance Officer and Permanent Secretary. The management information is then subject to external review and clearance by the NAO. These combined provide strong assurance over the accuracy of the workforce information published in the Annual Report.</p> more like this

answer text <p>HMRC had c.7,000 permanent staff by 1 January to support delivery of post-transition requirements, sourced through both redeployment and external recruitment. The post-transition roles comprise specialist and non-specialist, and operational and support, roles. Not all roles require additional training and HMRC do not track their training requirements against all 7,000 staff. HMRC are therefore unable to provide a breakdown of training time across the full permanent complement without incurring significant additional costs. Newly recruited operational staff will have received five weeks of training, including induction.</p> more like this
