There were no declarations of interest.
2. ICT future services strategy
The Merlin Contract, under which ICT services are provided to the Assembly, is due to expire in 2014. The Commission is required to give notice to the Welsh Government and Atos by April 2013 of its decision in respect of the future provision of ICT services to the Assembly. The Commission agreed in November 2011 to assess two options: the extension of the Merlin contract; or a move to a mixed in-house provision.
Commissioners discussed their aims for future ICT Services to assist with their forthcoming decision on these arrangements.
A further meeting will be held on 3 December.
3. Any other business
There was no other business.
