Contracts information

The request was successful.

Dear Cheshire West and Chester Council,

I am writing to make an open government request for all the information to which I am entitled under the Freedom of Information Act 2000.

Do you currently have a contract(s) in place with a Managed Service Provider for temporary staffing requirements?
Can you confirm who this/these are with?
Please advise the start date of this/these?
Please advise the end date of this/these?
Please advise the duration (including possible extensions)?
Please advise the categories of staff this contract(s) covers?
What’s the annual spend via the contract(s)?
Please advise the breakdown per category of the spend via the contract?
Is there any off contract spend? If so how much?
Does this only cover temporary or does it include permanent staffing?
If both, please advise the temporary/permanent split?

Thank you

FOI West, Cheshire West and Chester Council
