Ministry of Justice: Procurement

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, how many contractors currently employed by his Department are paid £1,000 or more per day.

Answer

Three. As at February 2018.

The Ministry of Justice brings in contractors for a variety of reasons. These include general skills for short term work on projects that do not require a long term permanent role, or where highly specialist skills are required only on a temporary basis. We seek to use contractors where to do so is more efficient and cost-effective, saving money for the taxpayer.
