The renewed contract, which is worth £89m, will run from April 2025 to December 2029.

The Gas Safe Register is the official list of gas businesses across the UK who are registered to work safely and legally on boilers, cookers, fires and all other gas appliances.

Capita has been delivering the Gas Safe Register since 2009. It is also responsible for promoting awareness of the register and general gas safety awareness to consumers across the UK.

As part of the new contract, Capita "will ensure that new digital technology is embedded throughout processes to enable more effective and efficient delivery of the concession, and to improve the way consumers and engineers engage with the service".

Chief executive Adolfo Hernandez said: "We are proud of our track record operating the Gas Safe Register, a critical service which helps keep people safe every day.

"This renewal is testament to the key role Capita plays as a strategic partner to government, using people, technology and processes to transform public sector services and improve citizen experiences."

At 0910 GMT, the shares were up 1.6% at 14.42p.
