I request the following information regarding any employees at council:
1) The number of roles in your association (expressed in numbers of FTE) that are mainly or exclusively focussed on issues of equality, diversity, or inclusivity. For example,
this could include (amongst other guises) "DEI officers" or "diversity and inclusion project managers" but would not include general HR managers.
2) Either
a) the pay band of each of these roles or
b) the combined total salaries for these roles.
Whichever measure is more following your data preferences.
3) In the past 12 months, the number of staff days across your organisation that have been committed to attending equality training programmes, whether internally run or with external consultants. (staff days = duration of the training programme multiplied by the number of staff attending the course). If unable to provide, please mark it as N/A in your return.
If any of the requested information is withheld, please specify the grounds for refusal by reference to the relevant sections of the Act as such information is not exempt from the scope of the FOIA Act; - Decision
