Intellectual Property Office: Training
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, how much the Intellectual Property Office spent on equality and diversity training in the 2022-23 financial year.
- Answer
-
On 2 October, the Chancellor of the Exchequer announced a value for money audit of all EDI (Equality, Diversity and Inclusion) spending in the Civil Service.
The audit will dovetail with the public sector productivity review, aiming at delivering a leaner, more efficient government. The audit forms part of our drive to improve productivity across the public sector by driving down waste and improving performance.
The findings and actions of the audit will be announced by the Chancellor in the Autumn.
