Framework for the Provision of Legal Services

A multi supplier ranked framework (minimum of 2) to provide legal advice and representation to the SSSC, primarily in relation to fitness to practise panel investigations and hearings but also in relation to other matters and proceedings associated with our regulatory function such as employment matters related to Panel members, procurement law as it relates to delivery of learning and development statutory functions, governance matters as it relates to the operation of the SSSC and any other relevant enquiry as it relates to the delivery of our statutory functions. A minimum of 2 ranked suppliers will reduce the risk of any conflict of interest around individual cases.
