Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, what contracts the Cabinet Office currently hold with Edenred; and what the total cost to the public purse of those contracts is.

Edenred is a cross-government supplier procured through fair and open competition via the Crown Commercial Service procurement frameworks.

The Cabinet Office currently has one contract with Edenred which acts as a benefits hub for our employees. The current value of the contract is £1,960,000; however, a proportion of this money is an initial outlay from the Cabinet Office which will be returned to the public purse through contribution which will be made to the two employee salary sacrifice schemes (cycle to work and childcare vouchers).
