Bidders should confirm that this condition will be met within the response to this question.
4C.4(b)
Tenderers are asked to confirm that they will pay staff that are involved in the delivery of the contract (including any agency or sub-contractor staff) directly involved in the delivery of the contract at least the real Living Wage.
