1. What information is held on the political affiliation of board members and senior staff within your organisation?

There is no board in our organisation therefore there are no board members. We hold no information for senior staff regarding any information that could be described as ‘political affiliation’.

We have no spend specifically allocated to press and media. We have no personnel employed exclusively on press and media. Any press and media work is handled on an ad hoc basis.

We are unaware of any relevant guidelines having been issued to the Chief Inspector by the Scottish Government.
