Homes England: Equality
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, how much has been spent by Homes England on diversity, equality and inclusion (a) training and (b) programmes since 5 July 2024.
Answered by Alex Norris
In line with the Civil Service Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Expenditure Guidance - GOV.UK which came into effect in May 2024 Homes England has not commissioned any formal diversity, equality and inclusion training activity or training programmes.
The Agency have recently invested £400 to attend the Whitehall & Industry Group (WIG) Diversity & Inclusion conference with a focus on ‘benchmarking and collaborating across all sectors to create inclusive and high-performance workplaces’. Learning from this event will be shared to maximise value and a return on investment.
