WQ.11/2020

WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE CHIEF MINISTER

BY DEPUTY K.F. MOREL OF ST. LAWRENCE ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 21st JANUARY 2020

Question

Between 1st January and 31st December 2018, what was the total amount spent by the Government of Jersey on consultancy services provided by an individual' and also consultancy services provided by a supplier'; and, in addition, how many of each such type of entity (individual or supplier) do these total spend figures relate to?

Answer

The 2018 Annual Report detailed expenditure on consultancy and temporary staff was £0.7 million and £11.1 million respectively in 2018 compared to £1.1 million and £8.7 million in 2017. This analysis is based on the accounting definitions of spend on consultancy and temporary staff which is not the same as spend with consultancy companies that can provide staff to operate within the organisation on a hired services basis. This amount cannot be compared to the recent report (R.149/2019) published in response to P.59/2019, which looked at a wider definition of consultancy.
