I would think councillors have nothing to do with deciding who supplies food and printing to the council and it is done by officers.

I can't remember the exact amount but I think it is £500 where 3 quotes are needed for a spend to comply with the council tendering rules.

They might class each lunch as a separate spend so don't need to tender for it. I would hope they did tender though as it is £4000 a year and many local firms would like a nice regular contract like that so would be competitive.
