CONSULTANTS: REPORTING ON THEIR USE BY THE GOVERNMENT OF JERSEY (P.59/2019) – REPORT OF THE CHIEF MINISTER – JANUARY 2021

Presented to the States on 8th February 2021 by the Chief Minister

STATES GREFFE

2021  R.13

REPORT

Introduction

The Chief Minister agreed to report to the Assembly every six months on the cost of consultants, fixed-term employees and agency staff employed by the Government of Jersey.

This is the third of these reports, covering January to June 2020.

The data is presented in five tables (see Appendix) and in line with prior reports we have not been able to produce all the data requested under the Proposition. The reasons for this can be found in the prior reports and have not been duplicated here.

Overall, since the last report (covering July to December 2019), the total costs shown have increased from £24.3 million to £25.5 million (increase of £1.2m, 5%). The detail of these costs are provided below.

Lockdowns in the UK and Europe, and strict border restrictions in Jersey inhibited the Government's ability to attract permanent and fixed-term employees and so some contracts and interim arrangements have had to be extended until more favourable conditions  exist for advertising, recruiting, and onboarding fixed-term appointees. There have been a significant number of specific projects required additional specialist and technical expertise, which have caused consultancy costs to increase, such as Our Hospital,  Integrated  Technology  Solution,  Efficiencies  and  Covid.   Treasury  & Exchequer also needed resourcing during a difficult recruitment period to add support to financing and closure of accounts.

In addition, the pandemic necessitated an increase in resources to support Ministers with the Island's health, wellbeing, fiscal and economic response. In the main, this short- term resourcing for specialisms in Covid response has been taken from core staff, which then required back-fill. Due to a lack of experience in the Island, and the roles being temporary in nature, the best support for these roles was through the use of contractors. This was a scenario played out across other jurisdictions and so the marketplace was crowded and Jersey did well to bring in the support it has during the pandemic. Conversely, costs in the other five  categories  have fallen by between 15   27% (depending on the category), and partially due to the impact of Covid.

The costs are broken down into the following tables:

Consultancy services provided by a supplier

o £8,239,389; H2 2019 £4,808,262

Consultancy services provided by a specific individual

o £ 3,838,885; H2 2019 £3,152,950

Fixed-term employees, collated by department, for individuals paid at or below the Civil Service grade 15.4 salary

o £6,877,806; H2 2019 £8,330,462

Fixed-term employees, paid above the Civil Service grade 15.4

o £525,356; H2 2019 £644,863

3

Local agency staff, collated by department

o £2,278,528; H2 2019 restated £2,695,326

Local and UK Nursing agency cost

o £2,712,100; H2 2019 £ 3,214,195

Social worker agency cost

o £1,071,506; H2 2019 £1,471,987

The use of contractors

Interims, contractors, and agency staff are commonly used by governments, businesses, and third-sector organisations for one or more of the following reasons:

To provide short-term cover to fill vacancies or sudden capacity gaps, where speed of appointment is important to avoid the failure of services or care, for instance in teaching, nursing, and social care.

To fill longer-term capacity gaps, where permanent recruitment will take time and the need to fill a role is urgent, but it is likely to take months to make permanent recruitments. This can again involve teachers, nurses, and social workers, but also some more senior roles.

To fill capability gaps, where skills are needed that the organisation does not currently have. This could be for a time-limited project, and/or where the project's aim is to build sustainable internal skills and it needs support to do this.

The cost of contractors

Contractors typically cost significantly more than the equivalent permanent employee of a similar skill set. The higher costs are influenced by several factors:

Agency fees are often charged on top of the contractor's own rates

An independent contractor needs to factor in employer social security, pension, and tax costs, and a premium to cover work insecurity, infrequency, and instability

Competition, supply, and demand for niche skills increases the market price for contractors

The additional cost of travel and accommodation for contractors working away from home.

On the other hand, these costs need to be compared with the opportunity cost of not doing the work they are brought in to do – whether care for patients and vulnerable people, educating children, or delivering transformation that will improve services and reduce future costs.

R.13/2021

In addition, where contracts are of short duration, the roles are not ongoing, and there is no-one in the organisation with the skills to do the work, there is no alternative.

Notes:

  1. Through the collection of this data, it has become clear that we do not maintain a central  record  of  procurement  information.  One  Government  modernisation  is designed to resolve this issue. We have therefore been unable to provide information as to whether consultants were procured through a tender or quotes selection process as requested in the Proposition. This highlights our need for an integrated payroll, procurement,  and  accounts  payable  system  to  collate  and  verify  this  type  of information. This is included in the proposed Government Plan which is due to be implemented in 2022.
  2. The Proposition asked to indicate if a structural needs assessment (SNA) was carried out for each contract. While there is no common definition of a SNA across the organisation, a significant number of SNAs have been completed.
  3. Departments and accountable officers shown in the tables may have changed since the  procurement  took  place.  This  is  due  to  the  One  Government  changes  to departments.
  4. The daily rate of consultants has not been shown, due to commercial concerns over releasing this information. Instead, it was felt that showing the total cost for H1 will provide more accurate information for members. In addition, consultants often work across several projects meaning separating the cost of each individual engagement is not possible at this point. Regarding the final cost of any engagement this will be completed when we can bring all the systems together, see point 1 above.
