Question to the Scotland Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland, who the diversity champion is on his departmental board.

I place great importance on the Scotland Office’s commitment to Diversity. The governance of the Scotland Office and the Office of the Advocate General is overseen by the Offices’ Joint Management Board, which I chair. The Diversity Champions on the Board are Francesca Osowska, Director of the Scotland Office, and Michael Chalmers, Director of the Office of the Advocate General.

The Government introduced Diversity Champions as part of the Talent Action Plan commitment to have champions in all departments.
