What changed
This notice announces the award of a contract for water charges for the Welsh Government's core estate properties. The contract, valued at £400,000, has been directly awarded to Welsh Water/Dwr Cymru and is set to run from April 1, 2026, to September 30, 2029, with potential for two 12-month extensions. The justification for a direct award is based on intellectual property or exclusive rights, as Welsh Water is stated to be the sole water supplier.

No specific actions are required from external entities unless they are involved in the management or oversight of these properties or the procurement process itself.
