Based on self-declaration rates held on our HR systems, the number of staff in the Department for Exiting the European Union who are:

  1. foreign nationals is 12, which is 2% as a proportion of those on the Department’s HR systems.

  2. non-UK EU citizens is 10, which is 1.7% as a proportion of those on the Department’s HR systems.

  3. Information on dual nationality is not available from our systems.

These figures are based entirely on people identifying themselves as a foreign national or an EU national on the Department’s HR systems.
