Dear Buckinghamshire Borough Council
I am interested in the amounts paid by each school in
Buckinghamshire City Council to third parties in relation to
temporary agency
staffing cover. My hope is to receive an electronic breakdown of
amounts paid through the department's purchase ledger by school.
Notes:
1. I would like the information in electronic format. This should
avoid any printing cost issues.
2. In order to avoid your having to collate information from
peripheral systems, I am willing to accept information only from
your main system (I would like you to advise which system this is).
By main system I mean the system that handles the largest part of
the department's expenditure. If supplier payments are made through
separate systems, then I would like you to choose the main system
for each.
3. The information I require for each school is: School Name;
Supplier name and total amount paid.
4. I would like the information to cover the financial year 2010/11
5. In the event that the supplier names are not available, then
please provide the total amount spent by each individual school as
an alternative.
Yours faithfully,
Lilian Findlay
Business Manager

Dear Ms Findlay
FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT 2000 - INFORMATION REQUEST
Thank you for contacting Buckinghamshire County Council.
Your request for information has now been considered and the information you have requested, where held, is attached.
Please note that we do not hold data for academy schools.
With respect to your request for supplier names:
Schools have delegated budgets and we are not responsible for their spending decisions, moreover, we also only require of them information that enables us to meet our statutory requirements.
We would hold no data for 'cheque book' schools, furthermore, other schools do not use our purchasing system and, therefore, we would not be able to tell what they were purchasing. In other words, we believe that you need to direct this part of the request to the schools themselves.
Contact details for schools are available through our directory, available at:
http://www.buckscc.gov.uk/bcc/schools/di...
If you have any further queries or concerns then please contact us.
If you have a complaint about the handling of your request then please use the Council's complaints procedure (at Stage 3) in the first instance. This is available at:
http://www.buckscc.gov.uk/sites/bcc/abou...
Or by writing to:
