Scottish Government training materials of gender ideology: FOI release
Information requested
What organisation has been responsible for training the Scottish Government and the NHS in gender ideology and how were training materials vetted and commissioned
Response
We have interpreted your request as asking 2 questions;
1- What organisation is responsible for training the Scottish Government in gender ideology and how were training materials vetted and commissioned
2- What organisation is responsible for training the NHS in gender ideology and how were training materials vetted and commissioned
For both questions we have interpreted 'gender ideology' to mean the terms 'gender recognition', 'gender identity' and 'gender expression'. For context it may be useful to refer to a previous FOI response on gender identity training found using this link: Diversity Equity and Inclusion training with regards to gender expression and gender identity: FOI release - gov.scot.
For question 1
The majority of training provided to core Scottish Government is developed and delivered in house. All training material is subject to a Quality Assurance process. No training is being delivered to SG core on the topic of your query, and we are not working with any organisation to develop or provide training on this.
This is a formal notice under section 17(1) of FOISA that the Scottish Government does not have the information you have requested.
For question 2
The Scottish Government does not have the information you have asked for because it is the responsibility of individual NHS boards to deliver training. Therefore this is a formal notice under section 17(1) of FOISA that the Scottish Government does not have the information you have requested.
