Request 1

I am writing to you from Yerra Solutions and we are writing a whitepaper on legal spend in government and to enable us to write something we require the information listed below. We would also welcome the opportunity to speak with anyone in your organisation who manages Legal spend if this is a possibility.

Following this, I am distributing a freedom of information request to hopefully receive the following information from you:

• How much did your organisation spend on legal fees in the financial year 2015?

Response 1

2014/2015 £23,948

Figures for 2015/2016 will not be available until 31.03.16. 

Request 2

Do you have a panel of preferred legal providers?  If yes, what year was this panel appointed?

Response 2

No
