In order to comply with the regulations, the House of Lords is obliged to advertise its contracts appropriately.
Contracts over the thresholds
For contracts which are over the thresholds advertisements are placed in the Official Journal of the European Union and can be viewed, along with those for the rest of the EU, at the Tenders Electronic Daily website.
Contracts below the thresholds
The House of Lords currently uses the Contracts Finder website to advertise contracts which are below the procurement regulations thresholds, but over £10k. This portal is used by other public sector organisations to advertise lower value contracts.
Advertisements and award notices
All House of Lords advertisements and award notices are also available on the Parliamentary Procurement portal.
