Please note that the contract value provided within this notice represents an estimate prepared by the Council. It is issued for guidance only and does not constitute a fixed budget or an indication of the expected contract price. Bidders are expected to submit a competitive bid based on market prices.

Mae'r gwerth amcangyfrifedig rhwng £200,000 a £220,000 ar gyfer tymor llawn y contract gan gynnwys yr holl estyniadau.
