Does not meet WP:NPOL. No significant coverage about him or his career, all passing mentions of him. "Just being an elected local official does not guarantee notability". – Meena • 21:33, 2 July 2022 (UTC) Please add new comments below this notice.

 * Keep. Has the nominator even read the article? He's not an "elected local official". He's not even a politician, so WP:NPOL does not apply. He's a senior civil servant who is the permanent head of one of the departments of the British national government. He also holds the CB, which has pretty much always been held to pass WP:ANYBIO #1.

 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Keep per Necrothesp. His status as a high-ranking official in the British national government, and holder of a notable and prestigious award, makes him a WP:ANYBIO pass. Sal2100 (talk) 18:18, 27 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep as a notable civil servant per Necrothesp's arguments. ~ EDDY  ( talk / contribs )~ 02:30, 3 August 2022 (UTC)
