Question to the Scotland Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland, how many of his Department's invitations to tender have received no bidders in the last two years.
This question was answered on 1st May 2018
Other than for minor or bespoke purchases, the Scotland Office does not normally undertake direct procurement or tendering of external agencies or consultant contracts. It utilises existing service contracts between suppliers and the Scottish Government, Cabinet Office or the Ministry of Justice.
