The current estimated spend for each authority based on 2013/14 spend is around the following levels: — Cambridgeshire County Council 93 000 GBP per annum; — Northamptonshire County Council 53 000 GBP per annum; — Northampton Borough Council, Northamptonshire Partnership Homes and Northampton Leisure Trust 40 000 GBP per annum; Tenderers should note that the estimated annual spend figures given above are only estimates and spend may vary and no guarantee of any or any particular volume of work is given.
