Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, pursuant to the Answer of 23 May 2018 to Question 147409 on procurement, how long each of those contractors has been employed by his Department at that daily rate.
Since our response to 147409 on the 23 May 2018, it has been confirmed that there are six contractors earning over £1000 a day, recruited via the Contingent Labour one framework. These contractors have been employed over the past 18 months with the latest starting 2 weeks ago. I am arranging for the earlier response to be corrected.
