The Public Services (Social Value) Act 2012 (`the Act') imposes a duty upon the Council `where the European procurement regulations apply to the contract in question' to consider, at pre-procurement stage: (a) how what is proposed to be procured might improve the economic, social and environmental well-being of the Council's area; and (b) how, in conducting the process of the procurement, it might act with a view to securing that improvement. The Act applies to services contracts and to mixed contracts where the `services' part has the greater value.
