Tender description
Food and Drink are a division of the Agriculture and Rural Economy Directorate and are providing the necessary support for the establishment for the independent Pubs Code Adjudicator of Scotland and their office. Naturally this includes various aspect of procurement. The Tied Pubs (Scotland) Act 2021 received Royal Assent in May 2021. The purpose of the Act is to regulate the relationship between tied pub landlords and tenants through the introduction of a statutory Scottish Pubs Code and the appointment of a Scottish Pubs Code Adjudicator. The role of the Adjudicator is to oversee and enforce the code. The Scottish Pubs Code is currently being considered by Parliament, although further changes are expected in the autumn and we are anticipating that this will go live in early 2025, with the Adjudicator’s office being set up imminently.See attached document for full Statement of Requirements.
