To ask the hon. Member for Caithness, Sutherland and Easter Ross representing the House of Commons Commission, how many contractors supporting PICT and other information technology projects in the House have had their contracts (a) terminated and (b) not renewed due to poor performance.
- Answer
-
PICT hold records of all contractors who have left PICT since April 2012. Since contractors are not employees – but employed via an agency or their own Limited Company – any records kept are brief. It is not usual practice to provide references and as a result, reasons for their departure are not recorded.
The number of contractors whose contracts ended during this period has been follows:
2012/13 – 29
2013/14 – 48
2014/15 (to 30 June) – 57
