Southwark LBC has brought its IT service back in-house, cutting its contract with Capita to give it more ‘control' over how the service is delivered.

The cabinet member for finance, modernisation and performance, Fiona Colley, said: ‘This is a really exciting move for Southwark and we're very pleased to be taking back direct control of our IT and working with two other councils that share our priorities and understand our business.'
