10  Monitoring and Review

10.1  Throughout the length of the contract, the service provider will provide the PSO with information as requested which is necessary to allow the PSO to monitor compliance with the conditions set out in this protocol. This information will include the terms and conditions for transferred employees and the terms and conditions for employees recruited to work on the contract after the transfer, including sub-contracted areas of work.

10.2  Such requests for information will be restricted to that required for the purpose of monitoring compliance, will be designed to place the minimum burden on the service provider commensurate with this, and will respect commercial confidentiality. The service provider and the PSO will also support any Scottish Executive-sponsored review and monitoring programme on the impact of the protocol and will provide information as requested for this purpose. Such requests will follow the same principles of proportionality and confidentiality.
