Dear Sir or Madam,
I am currently doing analytical research into Government Spend on
Contractors within the Public Sector. This is to compare spend
throughout the public sector and to analyse any trends.
Can you please supply the following information:
a)Contractor (people supplied through a agency) expenditure for CF
since you came into existence
b) Contractor expenditure for NSMC (which I believe falls under
your remit) since you came in existence
Yours faithfully,
John Freeland
