The Department for Culture Media & Sport (DCMS) has completed a tender for Legal Services focused on International Data Transfers. The contract, valued at £16,500, was awarded to DLA Piper LLP, and the contract period ran from 1 June 2020 to 31 July 2020.

This tender presents significant opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) within the legal sector, particularly those specialising in data protection and GDPR compliance.
