I can advise the Deputy that there are no contracts between my Department and the firm ‘Capita’.

Of the seventeen Bodies under the aegis of my Department, I am informed that sixteen do not have any contracts with a company named Capita.  The remaining body, the National Treasury Management Agency (NTMA), holds four contracts with a company named Capita, two relating to Purchase to Pay ICT system (Software Supply and Installation, and Support & Maintenance) and two relating to Staff Expenses ICT system (Software Supply and Installation, and Support and Maintenance). The NTMA acquired the licenses and the systems are operational on NTMA infrastructure and therefore, the NTMA has no key ongoing dependency on Capita.
