Dear Mr Bates
 
I refer to your request dated 12 September 2022 to the Northumbria Police
and Crime Panel for information made under the Freedom of Information Act
2000.
 
You requested:
 
a)      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) “EDI officers” or “diversity and inclusion project managers” but
would not include general HR managers.
 
b)      Either a) the pay band of each of these roles, or b) the combined
total salaries for these roles. Whichever measure is more in accordance
with your data preferences.
 
c)      In the past 12 months the number of staff days across your
organisation which 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 in attendance for the course).
 
d)      The contractual cost of any consultants hired, in the past twelve
months, to provide any external training or advice on issues of diversity,
equality, or inclusivity.
 
e)      In the past twelve months, the number of staff days committed to
attending conferences relating mainly or exclusively to matters of
Equality, Diversity and Inclusion. (duration of conference multiplied by
the number of staff in attendance).
 
f)      The costs of attending these conferences.
 
g)      Membership costs the organisation pays for participation in
equality charters such as the Stonewall Equality Champions, or Diversity
and Inclusion Workplace champions.
 
Response:
The Northumbria Police and Crime Panel has no dedicated staff as the Panel
is serviced as part of a support arrangement.  Therefore there is no
information that can be provided.
 
Please note:
Access to the information in response to your request is provided under
the Freedom of Information Act. To re-use the information for other
purposes (including commercial purposes) you must make a request under the
Re-Use of Public Sector Information Regulations (2015). You can do this by
writing to Information Rights Officer, Corporate Services and Governance,
1st Floor, Civic Centre, Regent Street, Gateshead, NE8 1HH or email
[1][email address]. You may be required to pay a fee or
comply with conditions for permitted re-use.
 
If you are dissatisfied with the handling of your request, you may apply
to the Strategic Director of Corporate Services and Governance, Civic
Centre, Regent Street, Gateshead, NE8 1HH, for an internal review of the
decision. This will be a fresh consideration of your request by a more
senior officer. If you wish to request a review you must do this in
writing within 40 days of receipt of this letter.
 
Following the internal review if you are still unhappy you have a right to
complain to the Information Commissioner as specified below:
