<title>Calculation of the National Costs and Savings of Compulsory Competitive Tendering</title>
<link>http://www.european-services-strategy.org.uk/outsourcing-library/public-costs/calculation-of-the-national-costs-and-savings/</link>
<description>Produced as a supplement to the Full Report The Gender Impact of CCT in Local Government, this paper focuses on the public costs of CCT and provides a detailed analysis of the costs and savings of CCT using published government sources. It developed a model of income and expenditure flows for central and local government and demonstrated that there were no savings from CCT but there was in fact a net cost to the government.
