Description

Open tender signing up to Ofwat's Standard Terms and Conditions for Goods and Services. We want political monitoring to cover both England and Wales, including the London Assembly. We are also interested in high level water and wastewater activities in Scotland and Northern Ireland. We will not require a full monitoring service for Scotland or Northern Ireland as our scope of regulation does not extend to those devolved nations. However, it is helpful to receive parliamentary questions and information on press notices regarding both Scottish Water and Northern Ireland Water. We do not require European monitoring. Relevant information will include, but not necessarily be limited to, Westminster, Whitehall, Welsh Government and the Senedd: • House of Commons, Lords, and Senedd business relating to water/sewerage/regulation/competition policy (including legislation, UK and Welsh Government announcements and committee activities); • UK and Welsh Government press releases (including those from the Drinking Water Inspectorate, the Environmental Agency and Natural Resource Wales); • Consumer bodies' press releases (e.g. Consumer Council for Water and Citizens Advice); • Trade association press releases (e.g. Water UK, National Farmers Union); • Other regulators (Ofgem/Office of Rail and Road/Competition and Markets Authority/ UK Regulators Network etc); • Official publications (Acts/Bills/White papers/Green papers etc); • Political parties' press releases and policies relating to legislation; • General political information on regular events (e.g. Queen's Speech/Budget/Spring Statement); • Tabled, oral and urgent questions, Ministerial Statements and Early Day Motions (EDMs); • General information affecting all UK government departments/the Welsh Government/Civil Service; • Manifestos, party conference coverage and press releases; and • The London Assembly coverage should include all the above areas and highlight relevant questions and debates. The Information received through the parliamentary monitoring service will be used as an information tool to aid us in dealing with parliamentary and Senedd issues.
