Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs written question – answered at on 7 March 2005.
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what redundancy package was negotiated with Mr. Craig Murray; and whether confidentiality clauses were included.
Mr. Murray applied for early severance from the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) in accordance with the terms of the FCO's current programme to reduce its staff numbers. The terms for all early departures, including Mr. Murray's, are those laid down under standard Cabinet Office-approved rules. No officer who has departed under these terms has been asked to agree any confidentiality clauses. It would not be appropriate for us to go into the detail of the terms received by individuals.
