Job roles
Dear Denbighshire County Council,
Can the council, under the FOI Act, provide a full breakdown by group of the number of council employees that have job titles which include the term: diversity and/or inclusion and/or equality and/or race and/or equalities and/or lived experience and/or ethnic ?
As well as a full breakdown of how much the total yearly salaries for said employee 'group' cost (without double counting) in total for each of the last 5 financial years?
Will the council, under the FOI Act, also provide a breakdown of how often bin collections are and how often they are (eg: weekly, fortnightly, three-weekly) compared with each of the last 5 years?
Yours faithfully,
David Jones

salaries/bin collections over the last 5 years
We would be grateful if you would provide the following clarification:
These are the relevant job roles which all sit in Education. We do
not understand the second question - are you able to explain what you
mean? Are you, for example, looking to compare salary spending on
‘equalities’ with bin collections? If so, then we could try and find out
the total salaries for the inclusion officers over the last five years.

The request is now on hold while we await your response.
If we can be of any further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact
me.
