Why no open competition

The works, supplies or services can be provided only by a particular economic operator due to absence of competition for technical reasons

Published justification

Marine Scotland's vessels can be at sea for up to three weeks at a time, staff must abide by the working time directive. That means that staff will have 11 hours free time during the day for which Marine Scotland have to provide suitable entertainment. This is also helpful to provide up to date information on present day events which is important in the operations of our compliance role. In investigations the digital TV market, only one major provider is available as others rely on cable connections which is not appropriate for vessels.
