Suppliers and those organisations looking to bid for NHS Litigation Authority contracts should be aware that if they are awarded a new contract, the resulting contract will be published.  In some circumstances, limited redactions will be made to some contracts before they are published in order to comply with existing law and for the protection of national security.
