Written question asked by Lee Anderson (Reform UK) on Friday, 25 October 2024, in the House of Commons. It was due for an answer on Tuesday, 29 October 2024. It was answered by Jim McMahon (Labour) on Tuesday, 5 November 2024 on behalf of the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government.
Local Government: Equality
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, whether her Department has provided funding to local authorities for diversity and inclusion projects in the last three financial years.
- Answer
-
The department funds the Local Government Association (LGA) to deliver a sector support programme for the benefit of local authorities, which during the last three years has included elements of Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) work e.g. an online hub housing EDI learning resources and tools, guidance on public sector equality duty and support to councils on the design of EDI policies and services.
The department does not maintain a central list of funding to local authorities titled ‘diversity and inclusion projects’ so we are not able to provide that information.
