Oral question asked in the House of Commons, by Kevin Foster (Conservative). It was answered on Thursday, 27 October 2022 on behalf of the Women and Equalities.


Civil Service Jobs: Relocation

Question

It is always good to hear that the town of my birth is well represented in any Department. The Minister will be aware that moving civil service jobs into coastal communities, particularly into our town centres, can help to kick-start regeneration. What plans does he have to look at doing that in Torbay?

Answer

Of course, my hon. Friend is right: this Government are committed to levelling up not just in the north of England, but across the whole country, ensuring that everybody has opportunity wherever they are. That is why we are ensuring that we create jobs and opportunity everywhere in the country, including in constituencies such as his.
