Scotland Office: Training

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland, how many staff network events took place in his Department in May 2025; and what the names of those events were.

Answered by Ian Murray

Staff networks are collaborative volunteer networks, organised by staff themselves rather than the department. As a result, events are organised by staff themselves, not the department. We are aware of the following events that these networks organised in May 2025:

Network

Date of Meeting

Parent and Carers Network

7th May 2025

LGBT+ Network

8th May 2025
