Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, what the total cost is of the current security contract with G4S in Afghanistan; what the tender for the next such contract is worth; who has expressed interest in that contract; and when the contract will be awarded.
This question was answered on 8th September 2014
The current security contract which has been in place since February 2010 with G4S in Afghanistan is worth approximately £120m and is due to end on 30/06/2015. The tender for the next such contract is worth an estimated value of £14-20m per annum and is likely to reduce over the lifetime of the contract. As this is currently a live tender, we are unable to provide details as to who has expressed interest in this contract, since this information is commercially sensitive.
