Dear ###
We write further to your request which was received on 7 January 2020 and which states:
"Can I please clarify what I am asking for is How much in a budgetary amount over a financial year does it cost for management and supervisors pay on a Sunday for driving a bus." While our aim is to provide information whenever possible, in this instance the public authority does not hold the information in a way which enables us to give you an answer in the exact format you have requested. In the period 1 April 2019 to 12 January 2020 the Department’s costs for casual drivers’ weekend pay was £211,828.8. However, the way in which the information is coded and recorded for payroll purposes does not enable us to split out Sundays from Saturdays so only this total figure is available.
