I am interested in understanding the key contacts, and I have added a simple spreadsheet. If the titles are different please amend accordingly.

You subsequently clarified your request with the following:

I do not need training costs please, just the IT spend on Hardware and software please. Staff costs are not required, I am just keen to understand the key contacts please, as per my original spreadsheet please (amend if necessary). Cloud consumption is not required.

Response

A copy of the information is attached. Please read the below notes to ensure correct understanding of the data.

Please be aware that I have decided not to release full staff details staff as this information falls under the exemption in Section 40 subsections 2 and 3(A)(a) of the Freedom of Information Act.

This is because it would breach the first data protection principle as:

a) It is not fair to disclose these people’s personal details to the world and is likely to cause damage or distress to staff

b) These details are not of sufficient interest to the public to warrant an intrusion into the privacy of those staff.

Please click the below web link to see the exemption in full. https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2000/36/section/40
