Nearly £1m on recruitment benefits in last 10 years

The Department of Education, Sport and Culture says it's spent almost a million pounds on recruitment benefits over the last 10 years.

A Freedom of Information request asked about schemes such as relocation costs, housing allowances and student loan forgiveness.

In its response, the department said it had spent a total of £968,133 on the schemes.

Housing allowances for 95 staff made up more than half of that figure - £404,532 in the last decade.
