Legal Aid Agency cancels procurement of education and discrimination services

The Agency said it was contacting affected organisations “to let them know that we will not be awarding any CLA contracts for education and discrimination services through the current process”.

This decision was taken following receipt of insufficient compliant tenders, it said, adding that the procurement process would not have resulted in the award of the intended number of CLA contracts to provide education and discrimination services via its telephone service.

The Agency will formally write to each affected organisation advising them of this cancellation. It will also contact each affected organisation to discuss next steps.
