Cost of Stationery

Waiting for an internal review by Surrey Police of their handling of this request.

Dear Surrey Police,

It is understood that your stationery, like many public bodies, is bought through a procurement process. Many of these have then been found to be inefficient and result in the purchasing body paying over the odds for relevant items.

As such, can you please confirm the following points:

- Who the current office stationery supplier is.
- The purchase cost of a standard box of black ballpoint pens.
- The purchase cost of a roll of sellotape/adhesive tape.
- The purchase cost of a pack of office paper/printer paper.
- The purchase cost of a standard postage envelope.

With regards to the items above, a unit cost is preferable, or breakdown of how many units are bought in one go, if bought in bulk.

Yours faithfully,

Tim Keepson

Dear Surrey Police,

Please pass this on to the person who conducts Freedom of Information reviews.

I am writing to request an internal review of Surrey Police's handling of my FOI request 'Cost of Stationery'.

This is a fairly simple request revolving around the purchase price of stationery, so really shouldn't be delayed to this degree.

A full history of my FOI request and all correspondence is available on the Internet at this address: https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/c...

Yours faithfully,
