Answer

This is not information held by a shareholding minister, as the entities for which we are responsible are operationally independent. We note however that these entities are expected to be good employers as a matter of law. The information requested would require substantial collation to respond within the standard timeframe of a Written Parliamentary Question and, as such, we consider answering this question to not be in the public interest.
