Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, how many civil servants employed by their Department work in roles primarily focused on (a) transgender policy, (b) diversity, (c) equity and (d) inclusion; and at what annual salary cost.

We cannot provide the number and salary of staff who are employed in roles primarily focussed on a combination of diversity, equity and inclusion. Doing so would breach the Data Protection Act and risk identifying individual members of staff because the data is concerning five or less employees, and the information relates to someone other than the data subjects.
