Section six. Complementary information

six.3) Additional information

It is a mandatory requirement that Tendering Organisations with more than 5 employees have in place a Health & Safety Policy which is approved at senior level within the organisation and is reviewed regularly. Bidders should confirm that this condition has been met within the response to this question. Where a Bidder does not have a Health & Safety Policy and is required to do so, the Council may exclude the bidder from the competition.

To improve air quality in the city and reduce harmful emissions, the Council has implemented a Low Emission Zone (LEZ) scheme. The LEZ is in the city centre and includes all vehicle types (excluding motorcycle, mopeds and nationally exempted vehicles). Petrol vehicles must be a minimum of Euro 4 standard and diesel vehicles must be minimum of Euro 6 standard. Vehicles that do not meet the minimum emissions standard will receive a Penalty Charge Notice (fine). A two-year grace period is in place and fines will not be issued until enforcement begins on 1 June 2024.

Contractors should work towards their entire fleet becoming zero emission (for example by using electric vehicles - EVs), as soon as is practical, in support of the City’s 2030 net zero emissions target. The Contractor shall demonstrate that they have plans to progressively decarbonise their fleets to aim for a 100% sustainable fleet by 2030.
