I assume they've worked out who wants to work remotely and who wants/has to work on site and this is included in their calculations. It's not possible for everyone to work from home as they may not be fortunate enough to have appropriate space to do so.

That's because of poor management or underfunding. Plenty of telephone contact services overseas or managed by people from their homes in the UK that operate in all seasons.

Government institutions such as HMRC need to maintain data security. So, for example, the theft of the corporate PC/Laptop would be a data breach. In local government too, confidential data needs to be protected and I doubt that many councils have that properly in hand.

@Andrew
You also mentioned about people who want to work from home. What happens if/when they change their mind?
