The GLA is unable to quantify ‘loss of productivity’ in relation to the time that GLA staff spend doing the above training. 

 

2. Black on the Square and Black Futures

Black Futures event (2022) – Total cost £38,984

Black on the Square in 2023 – Total cost £292,306

These events are delivered with resource as part of the GLA’s wider events programme. The GLA does not log or formally record how much time different members of staff spend on a particular event. Therefore we do not hold information on total hours spent (loss of productivity does not apply).
