Good Afternoon,

Thank you for your recent Freedom of Information Request. I have passed this to our Finance Team and asked them to work on this for you. Would it be possible for you to define the term "Agency" to help them with this work for you?

Dear Kim Rattray,

By "Agency" I mean any external recruitment companies who supply yourselves with temporary or permanent staff members for teaching and non-teaching roles for an agreed fee or charge, whether that be through a contract or otherwise.

Yours sincerely,
