In June 2016, the number of staff employed in my Department was 2,384. In November 2018 the number of staff employed in my Department (latest workforce figures) was 6,214.<\/p>
Most of the increase here (82%) is the result of the transfer of staff and functions into the Cabinet Office from other Government Departments under machinery of government changes.<\/p>
As part of this Government\u2019s commitment to transparency, my Department publishes workforce statistics each month. Information about staffing levels since June 2016 are available at<\/p>
