Dear Operator
Contract Prices – Fuel / Inflation
Please do not prepare your April invoices until you receive further communication from us next week.
We recognise that all operators have experienced sudden and unforeseen cost increases over the past two months.
A proposal to mitigate these unforeseen cost increases is being submitted for consideration to our Senior Leadership Team on Tuesday 3rd May.
Following the decision on Tuesday, we will write to all operators with instructions for April invoices. It is vital that no invoices are sent in until we have written to you again.
Our commitment is that this process will not delay payment of April invoices, that are correctly submitted once we write to you again next week.
Your patience in this is really appreciated. Unfortunately we cannot answer any questions on this between now and next week. We would also ask that you do not make any decisions on the future of any contracts, until after you hear from us next week.
Many thanks,
