Written answers

It is important to note that cleaning and security services provided to my Department are charged for on an hourly basis. It is therefore not possible to outline the number of operatives assigned to a site, as this is a matter for the service providers and will vary, depending on the hours required.

The table below outlines the weekly number of hours provided for cleaning services by company and location, and the total costs for the years requested by the Deputy.
