Apparently we aren’t all in it together. The scale of expansion at DECC (Department for Energy and Climate Change) is staggering. Note the trend at the Department of Health is going in the opposite direction.

At a time of austerity, I am sure we will all be pleased to see that DECC have managed to increase their staffing levels by 35% since 2010, according to the Institute for Government.
Figures from the Office for National Statistics confirm that numbers of staff have increased from 1120, in Q4 2010, to a current level of 1510. (See here and here).
The only other departments to have increased staffing during this time are the Department for International Development and the Cabinet Office.
