A summary of the expected community benefits has been provided as follows: It is a mandatory requirement that potential framework participants/contractors agree to support the concept, provision, and ongoing development of community benefits provision in relation to this framework/contract. Potential framework participants/contractors are required to agree to this mandatory requirement. They are also requested to provide a summary of the community benefits that have recently been delivered within Scotland, if at all, and what impact and outcomes these have achieved.
