Request

Request Received: 18 October 2021

Clarification Received: 22 October 2021

I would like to request equality data in the following

1) A breakdown of UKRI staff members by ethnicity in the same way in which gender is represented in the Annual report showing pay bands for the past 3 years. Where you are unable to give data due to low numbers please clearly state this. Please disaggregate Ethnicity as I am particularly interested in the representation of Black staff members.

I am keen to understand how many Black directors (X&Y) and senior leaders (G&H) there are in UKRI.

Please provide this from the data set that was used to compile the most recent annual report and the latest data set available, but if I can only have one the same data set that was used to compile the most recent annual report, and where possible include data on both payroll employees and contractors/agency staff.

2) I would like to have the 'award value' and 'award rate by value' for the past 3 years disaggregated ethnicity so I can see the representation of Black individuals within the broader collation of minority ethnic groups

I note that this data is not in the ethnicity analysis report and is not disaggregated within the tableau data
