are engaged to deliver short-term on projects where specialist skills required are
not available within the organisation. As part of the governance process, approvals
are sought from Finance Business Partner, HR Business Partner & the Director General
to ensure that project outcomes and budget are validated and to seek confirmation
that internal resource is not available to deliver either due to the specialist nature
of the project or due to capacity issues enabling delivery within the project timescales.</p><p><br>
By making use of consultants, the department can save on salary, national insurance
and pension costs associated with permanently employing individuals whose skills may
not be needed after a set period.</p><p> </p><p>The government is investing £1bn to
reform our courts and tribunals service, bringing new technology and modern ways of
working to the justice system and benefiting all those that use it.</p>
