The new Hub, located near Waverley Station, will bring together nearly 3,000 UK 바카라 사이트 civil servants from a range of departments, including the Office of the Secretary of State for Scotland, the Office of the Advocate General for Scotland, HMRC, the Office for Statistics Regulation, the Information Commissioner바카라 사이트™s Office, the 바카라 사이트 Actuary바카라 사이트™s Department and HM Treasury.

Due to open in 2020, the Hub will improve the work of the UK 바카라 사이트 in Scotland, enabling closer collaboration between departments and helping them deliver better services for Scottish people.

Mr Mundell said:

Work is progressing well on the new UK 바카라 사이트 Hub in the centre of Edinburgh. The space will bring together some 3,000 UK 바카라 사이트 civil servants, helping them deliver high quality services for people across Scotland.

The Edinburgh Hub is a great example of the UK 바카라 사이트바카라 사이트™s extensive support for the capital바카라 사이트™s economy 바카라 사이트“ which we are also driving through the ambitious Edinburgh and South East Scotland Growth Deal.

The Edinburgh Hub will open during 2020. Work is also underway on a Glasgow Hub. The Edinburgh and Glasgow Hubs are a key part of the UK 바카라 사이트바카라 사이트™s commitment to delivering excellent public services for people in Scotland, and building a strong Civil Service outside London. Across the UK it is estimated that the UK 바카라 사이트 Hubs programme will save more than £2 billion of public money over twenty years, relocating civil servants from existing, often fragmented office locations, to modern, cross-departmental workplaces.
