IG002763 Freedom of Information - Clarity Request

Dear Maddie Cross,

We are currently in the process of compiling your Freedom of Information
request, however, we are wondering if you would be able to clarify a few
points we have, please:

• You have mentioned in the request ‘EDI events held by Civil Servants’
– those employed in the Fire Service are Public Servants as Government
employed workers are Civil Servants, therefore, could you clarify if
this is what you are instead requesting?
• Furthermore, staff wouldn’t hold their own EDI ‘events’, only provide
internal training or attending of external events. Would you be able
to clarify this part of the request please.

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask.

Kind regards,

Ben
