The States of Guernsey has appointed a new provider of day-to-day IT support.

The government said C5 Alliance would begin its initial two-year contract on 1 August and there would be an option to extend it for a further two years.

The termination of the States' contract with IT provider Agilisys is set to take effect by midnight on 31 July.

The States said the budget for the provision of the IT helpdesk for staff was about £750,000 per year.
