<p>The Law Officers' Departments use their resource flexibly and a number of staff
from across the organisations have been involved in work that supports the UK’s exit
from the EU.</p><p> </p><p>The Government Legal Department has a team that specifically
provides legal services to the Department for Exiting the European Union (DExEU).
Currently, there are 41.5 full-time-equivalent staff in this team and GLD would expect
to charge DExEU £3.731m for the services of this team in the 2017/18 financial year.</p><p>
</p><p>The remaining Law Officers' Departments (Attorney General’s Office, Crown Prosecution
Service, Serious Fraud Office and Her Majesty’s Crown Prosecution Service Inspectorate)
do not keep a separate record of expenditure for work relating to the UK’s exit from
the EU. It would not be proportionate to quantify the number of staff involved and
calculate costings, – particularly as the numbers of staff involved and the time requirements
from each vary over time.</p>
