Dear Akiva School,

We are aware all authorities are trying to reduce costs. Please provide information on your authorities vehicle hire/lease contract arrangements you have.

1. What is your authorities annual cost (excluding VAT) that you spend on the hiring/leasing of vehicles?

2. Does or would your authority have a requirement to hire/lease any of the following makes of vehicles:
a) Mini Bus/ MPV 8-9 Seats.
b) Vans of all sizes.
c) Refrigerated Vehicles.

3. Are your hire/lease vehicles on a contract term?

4. If so, when do they expire?

5. Would an SME contract hire company (up to £30,000 per annum) be allowed to provide your authority with hire/lease vehicles?

6. If yes, which person could we contact and what would be their direct telephone contact number?

Many thanks

Yours faithfully,

Mr Michael Middleton
Director of Southern Seaters Ltd
