Drysdale, Janet, Islington Borough Council

Islington Council were offered a contract with Maximus who have a
contract for the Work Programme for the West London area. We have
decided not to take up the offer of this contract. The main reason for
this was that were being asked to take on staff, under TUPE
arrangements, from the previous DWP Flexible New Deal contractors.
Local Government spending cuts have meant that we have made our own
staff, in similar roles, redundant and we did not feel we would lay off
our own staff and then take on employees from other organisations.

We are now planning to work strategically with all 3 Work Programme
providers delivering services covering Islington - Maximus, Reed and
Ingeus.

If you would like any further information please let me know.
