Re: Failed grant firm was given £4m

Though if you look at the story it says

"A one-off disengagement payment of £4m was made to the outgoing service provider to secure the transfer of the existing systems to the new service provider."

So I have feeling the LSC were held to ransom - the old company could have said 'These are our systems and database' and walked away with them

Then Crapita would have had to start from scratch which would have delayed the payments by god knows how long
