The Department for International Development (DfID) is carrying out a competitive tender for mine action in Sri Lanka. This process will identify the supplier able to deliver the maximum humanitarian and development benefits. Once the competition is completed I will write to the noble Lord to advise him of the specific results that will be delivered by the winning bidder, including the number of landmines that will be cleared.
