Harrow Borough Council cabinet has agreed to outsource the running of library services and leisure management for the borough.
At the meeting this evening councillors agreed to proposals for library services to be run by John Laing Integrated Services Ltd in partnership with neighbouring borough of Ealing.
The council has also agreed to award the contract delivery of leisure management services to Sports & Leisure Management Ltd in partnership with the boroughs of Brent and Ealing.
All boroughs involved in the contracts have now agreed and it is expected the change of services will begin later this year.
