Social Value Act
The Social Value Act came into force on 31 January 2013, reviewed and published in Feb 2015. It applies to public services contracts above the EU threshold for the application of EU procurement rules. The act requires commissioners in England and Wales to think about the value they can secure for their area when buying services at the pre-procurement stage.
