Sir Bernard Jenkin asks Sir Mark Sedwill what his top priorities are.
Sir Mark replies that his biggest job right now is to make a "success" of navigating the Brexit process.
He adds that he also considers work on national security and the government's industrial strategy his major areas.
Sir Bernard asks "what gives" in departments having to prioritise different areas due to the Brexit workload.
