The Scottish Pub Code Adjudicator’s requirement for accountancy services is currently met internally. The current post-holder is an interim appointment. The agency providing the interim is Venesky Brown Ltd.

In accordance with that Framework Agreement’s procurement procedures (as outlined in the Buyer’s Guide, which canbe found at https://www.gov.scot/publications/temporary-and-interim-staff-services-frameworks/), no contract notice (i.e. open advertisement) was placed and a direct award was made to the firstranked framework contractor, Venesky Brown Ltd. As described above, the procurement process was a direct award through a Framework Agreement and so advertisement of the requirement was not applicable. The contract was awarded on 14 October 2025.
