PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Ministry of Defence: Procurement (24 October 2016)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what the value of current contracts is between his Department and suppliers based in Wales.

Asked by:
Chris Elmore (Labour)

Answer

The value of direct contracts alone that the Ministry of Defence (MOD) currently holds with suppliers in Wales is £6.957 billion. This value is based on direct contracts currently held where the prime location of work is identified as Wales, and also includes the share of other contracts where some work is identified as taking place in Wales.

The value excludes any work that we have been able to identify as having been sub-contracted to other locations, even where the main supplier is situated in Wales. It also excludes contracts with MOD Trading Funds; miscellaneous payments; pan-Government enabling contracts and other enabling contracts that cover the whole of the MOD estate.
