Why is it happening now?
The LAA wants to better understand the market in Procurement Areas where we have no or low provision in the Housing and Debt Categories of Law
Market engagement will gather feedback to inform future approaches to securing service provision in these areas. Each session will have a geographical focus to consider issues pertinent to each area.
