Follow up to seconments request

The request was partially successful.

Dear BEIS

Thankyou for your helpful response to FOI 06209.

This is a new FOI seeking further information on the following two secondments referred to in that FOI (which relates to BIS secondments):
i. Senior Manager Grade 7 from PWC, from September 2015 – September 2016. Strategy and Growth.
ii.Corporate Finance and Policy Delivery, from KPMG, October 2014 – March 2016.

The request.
1. For i. please could you provide more fine-grained information on the policies/areas of business that the secondee, in Senior Management role, had responsibility for?

2. For ii. Please could you provide information on the seniority of the position, and the policies/areas of business the secondee covers. I presume that the relevant part of BIS will hold this information, though it is not held centrally.

3. For both secondments, whether any specific processes were put in place to diffuse any potential conflicts-of-interest in the two secondments.

In responding please consider the public interest in understanding how private sector secondments work, especially in areas where there could be perceived conflicts of interest.

With thanks and all best regards
