The Department for Transport and its Arms Length Bodies are engaged in a continuous process of anticipating and responding to the resourcing requirements of EU Exit. The Department is working with the Civil Aviation Authority (a public corporation), Office of Rail and Road (a non-Ministerial Department) and Maritime and Coastguard Agency (an Executive Agency) to ensure they have sufficient staff and resources to support the government and their respective industries post-EU exit.<\/p>

<\/p>

As was confirmed in the Spring statement, the Department for Transport has been allocated £75.8m for essential EU exit preparations in 2018-19. While this has not been allocated yet, a proportion of this will be used to support resourcing requirements across the Department, and its associated agencies and public bodies.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1413", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Chris Grayling"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Epsom and Ewell"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Chris Grayling"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2018-04-23", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-04-23T16:21:22.533Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "27"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Transport"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Transport"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2018-04-18", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Department for Transport: Staff"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what estimate he has made of the additional (a) staff and (b) resources required by the (i) Civil Aviation Authority, (ii) the Office of Rail and Road and (iii) the Maritime and Coastguard Agency after the UK leaves the EU.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4269", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Andy McDonald"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Middlesbrough"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Andy McDonald"} ], "uin" : "136318"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/872744", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Transport"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/872744/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

In 2016, the Department for Transport established a new Directorate to co-ordinate the Department\u2019s work on EU Exit and international trade. New EU Exit policy teams have already been established for all modal teams (road, rail, maritime, aviation, and energy, technology and innovation), with the majority of these posts being filled by staff already in the Department.<\/p>

The Department for Transport will be further strengthening our capacity over the coming months in preparation for leaving the EU, though numbers will not be substantial and this will be managed within existing structures.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4460", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Ms Nusrat Ghani"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Wealden"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Ms Nusrat Ghani"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2018-04-16", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-04-16T16:30:19.813Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "27"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Transport"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Transport"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2018-03-27", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Department for Transport: Staff"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what plans he has to (a) restructure (b) reorganise and (c) increase the number of staff in his Department in preparation for the UK leaving the EU.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4269", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Andy McDonald"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Middlesbrough"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Andy McDonald"} ], "uin" : "134557"} ], "itemsPerPage" : 10, "next" : "http://eldaddp.azurewebsites.net/answeredquestions.text?_page=1&max-date=2019-05-10&hansardHeading=Department+for+Transport%3A+Staff&max-answer.questionFirstAnswered.=2019-04-11T16%3A53%3A44.81Z", "page" : 0, "startIndex" : 1, "totalResults" : 27, "type" : ["http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#ListEndpoint", "http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#Page"]} }
