## Summary

The Scottish Government is currently seeking tenders for the "Charter for Rockall Anglerfish Survey," a public procurement contract within the marine services industry. The procurement is at the tender stage, with submissions due by 22nd March 2019. The project involves a 10-day charter starting on 17th April 2019, with the vessel required to operate in the Rockall and Northeast Atlantic regions. The total estimated value of the contract is £80,000, and all catch must be landed back at the port of departure in Scotland.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses involved in marine operations, particularly demersal trawlers with a minimum length of 28 metres.
