Written Question
Ophthalmic Services
Monday 15th September 2014

Asked by: Lord Elton (Conservative - Excepted Hereditary)

Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask Her Majesty’s Government whether they will publish the terms of the recently awarded contract to supply optometry services to the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency for a three-year period.

Answered by Baroness Kramer - Liberal Democrat Lords Spokesperson (Treasury and Economy)

The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency published an advertisement relating to this contract in the Official Journal of the European Union. This document outlined to prospective bidders the duration of the contract and the categories required for service delivery. Due to the detail and length, I have placed copies of this advertisement as well as copies of the Contract Award Notice, the terms and conditions of the contract and the specifications of the contract in the Libraries of the House.
