We answered
Our Ref: FOI-1409-2324
Thank you for your request received on 3 August 2023 asking for further information about this year’s Pride campaign.
Your request has been considered in accordance with the requirements of the Freedom of Information (FOI) Act and our information access policy. I can confirm that we do hold the information you require.
Further to the details set out in our substantive response dated 24 July 2023, we can confirm that Asifa Lahore was reimbursed £500 primarily to cover part of the cost of an assistant who attended for Health & Safety reasons during Asifa’s appearance on the ‘Conversations in the Cloud’ live stream from the IFS cable car and for the fair use of their time. There was no separate fee for any other Pride related activities that they took part in, such as the poster photo shoot. Please see the attached information sheet for details of your right to appeal. Yours sincerely
Gemma Jacob Senior FOI Case Officer FOI Case Management Team General Counsel Transport for London
