Response
Scottish Government Staff Diversity Networks are informal, voluntarily organised and self-sustaining communities of staff. Network participation is entirely voluntary with activities organised by members of the community themselves. All Scottish Government employees are required to set out the action they will take to embed equality and build a more inclusive workplace in an annual diversity and inclusion objective. Staff can therefore choose to use their objective to support and participate in network activities.
The answers to your queries are presented below:
1. No funds have been provided to the network for the period outlined in your query.
2. No administrative support by the organisation has been provided to the network for the period outlined in your query.
3. No funds have been provided to external organisations which have offered services to the network during the period outlined in your query.
