When exactly does the use of Eldrad's Divination power take place? From the wording I would assume after infiltrating units have been deployed, but before any scout moves have taken place. Am I correct about this?

If you could provide the exact wording it would help, not everybody has instant access to the codex!

Before the first turn - after deployment, it says it quite clearly in plain language on page 49.

Sorry could have helped more. Yes your interpretation of the infiltrators issue is correct, the scouts however....

After deployment but before first turn - so it comes down to what Scouts says as to when it is used.

Scouts only requires it is used after deployment and before first turn, meaning you should flip a coin - neither seems to take precedence here.

Thanks a lot everyone, and rolling to see if Divination or Scout moves happen first seems appropriate.

That's what you would do when you have rules which actually contradict each other, when you can't apply both during the same turn or both players have scouts. Then it is justified to roll off against each other.
If i do divination first, i don't break any scout move requirement.
If i do scout first i don't break the divination requirements either.
No contradiction, no dice, i choose.
However it can't be done after seize the initiative, as this immediately starts the first turn.
