Transparency of contracts and spend information
Government has set out the need for greater transparency
across its operations to enable the public to hold public bodies
and politicians to account.
As part of the transparency agenda the Government has made
the following commitments with regard to procurement and
contracting for central government and related bodies like
NDPBs:
- All new ICT contracts over the value of £10,000 to be
published in full online from July 2010
- All new tender documents for contracts over £10,000 to be
published on a single website from September 2010, with this
information to be made available to the public free of charge
- All new contracts to be published in full from January
2011
- We are required to publish information on monthly
expenditure exceeding £25,000
Suppliers and those organisations looking to
bid for public sector contracts should be aware that if they are
awarded a new Government contract, the resulting contract between
the supplier and Government will be published. In some
circumstances, limited redactions will be made to some contracts
before they are published in order to comply with existing law.
We will continue to add more data to these
sections as it becomes available.
