The Scottish Legal Complaints Commission (SLCC) is seeking tenders for "Legal representation and advice for the Scottish Legal Complaints Commission," with a total contract value of approximately £640,000 over four years. This procurement process is currently in the tender stage, having begun on 7th February 2022, with tenders to be submitted electronically by 19th April 2022.

The procurement method follows an open procedure, allowing a broad range of applicants to participate.

This tender presents significant opportunities for law firms, particularly those regulated by the Law Society of Scotland and specialising in public law, compliance, and regulatory matters.
