Provision of Interim Staff Services: FOI release

Information requested

The information listed below in relation to the Scottish Governments Framework for the Provision of Interim IT Staff Services and Provision of Interim Professional Staff Services.

[1] Total spend for each public body between 01 July 2023 – 30 September 2023 and to which agency (including agencies who are now no longer on the framework) for both Frameworks (Generation 3 & 4)?

[2] Number of jobs held by each agency at 30-Sep-23 (including agencies who are now no longer on the framework) for both frameworks (generation 3 & 4)?

Response

While our aim is to provide information whenever possible, in this instance the Scottish Government does not have some of the information you have requested. We are unable to provide the information you request at [2] number of job roles held for the 3rd or 4th generation of these frameworks by each agency at 30th September 2023, because to ensure compliance with Data Protection Act requirements, we have changed the format in which we collate and hold management information for these frameworks from 1st April 2023. As such we no longer hold data which allows a breakdown of individual job roles (i.e. number of individuals) per agency/framework. Consequently, we are unable to provide the data requested.

This is a formal notice under section 17(1) of FOISA that the Scottish Government does not have some of the information you have requested.

Please find the information you requested at [1], that we do hold, in the Annex attached.
