## Summary

The Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs (Defra), located in London, has announced plans for a public procurement process titled "Restriction of Hazardous Substances in Electrical Equipment." This falls under the industry category of refuse and waste related services.

This tender presents substantial opportunities for businesses specialised in providing expert scientific and technical advice, as well as socio-economic analysis, specifically for regulatory exemptions. Companies well-versed in European Union regulations and those with experience in evaluating applications for exemptions under the RoHS Regulations are particularly encouraged to participate. Engagement in this project can help firms expand their portfolio in regulatory compliance and gain long-term partnerships with government bodies like Defra, enhancing their visibility and reputation in the sector.

## Notice

Restriction of Hazardous Substances in Electrical Equipment - Exemption Reviews

### Lot Information

Lot 1

Defra requires expert scientific and technical advice and socio-economic analysis expertise to undertake the evaluation of applications for exemptions to the RoHS Regulations. This includes appraising EU decisions on applications made to the European Commission before the end of the Transitional Period for which "transitional provisions" are set out in The Hazardous Substances and Packaging (Legislative Functions and Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2020. This avoids the need for separate applications to be made for those exemption requests to apply in GB.
