Legal Terms - Civil Service
the group of *Crown servants who work for the government and are paid exclusively using funds that are chosen by Parliament each year to implement programs. Since 1999, employees of ministers of the devolved governments have also been considered civil servants. These employees include the administrative and executive staff of central government departments, such as the Home Office and Treasury, as well as *executive agencies, such as the Land Registry and the Prison Service. Because the Civil Service is permanent and politically unbiased, it offers stable administration even in the face of governmental upheavals. Government ministers, the military forces (which are not civil servants), the police (who are not Crown servants), and those (such as judges) whose salaries are deducted from the Consolidated Fund are not considered civil servants.
