no credits / deductions made due to poor service etc.  Goodman Spark hold
the contract which was awarded via a framework. Not at liberty to divulge

for such small spend contracts.  In cased that we do run our own tenders,
we publish them on Pro Contract / Due North and we will also publish them
through the UK government’s brand new ‘Find A Tender’ system.
