The Deputy Leader and Cabinet Member for Finance presented the report which proposed an extension to the current agency worker contract and thanked the officers involved.  The extension would provide best value for the Council.

The Director of Corporate Services advised that the current provider had enabled the Council to move staff on other interim contracts onto this contract and therefore achieving greater value for money.  The numbers of and amount spent on agency staff would continue to be monitored closely.
