Description

The Ministry of Justice (MoJ) as the contracting authority is looking to commission the provision of Community Accommodation Service Tier-2 to replace the current service named Bail Accommodation and Support Service (BASS). The service is for people released on bail and offenders released from custody who meet the necessary eligibility criteria; including but not limited to, those released on Home Detention Curfew (HDC) and Additional License Cohort (ALC).
