To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what unforeseeable events led his Department to award contracts for additional shipping freight capacity under Regulation 32 of The Public Contracts Regulations 2015.
- Answer
-
I refer the hon Member to my Rt hon Friend's Written Statement of 7 January [HCWS 1233].
A negotiated procurement procedure without prior publication was concluded as allowed for by Regulation 32 of The Public Contracts Regulations 2015.
