Dear Mr Brown
FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT 2000 Your request for information has now been considered and the Council’s
response to your questions is shown below.
You asked:
I am interested in the amounts paid by each school in Leicester 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 year 2009/10
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.
Please find the relevant information attached.

personal use. Please be aware that any commercial or other use, for example
publication, sale, or redistribution may be a breach of copyright under the
Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988 as amended unless you obtain the

Not all the information that is supplied which is covered by copyright will be
the Council's copyright, for example it may be the copyright of a government
department or another Council. You should seek either the Council’s consent
or their consent as appropriate. The Council is willing to advise you of any
such potential issues on request. In order to make a request to re-use the
information please contact the Head of Information Governance using the
details below.
