The following table sets out the number of contracts that has been let by the core Department since 2009-10, as shown on our procurement and financial systems.

  Number of contracts
  Contract value between £1 million and £3 million Contract value over £3 million
2009-10 2 9
2010-11 1 1
2011-12 5 2
2012-13 10 3
2013-14 4 2

For contracts that are about to be let there are none within the values requested. We have not included those contracts that are about to be extended nor those about to be let through a framework agreement as we do not yet know the value of the framework contract.

Information relating to the expenditure and the number of officials involved in monitoring contracts is not held centrally.
