The aim of the DESP programme is to reduce the risk of sight loss amongst people with diabetes by the prompt identification and effective treatment, if necessary, of sight threatening diabetic retinopathy, at the appropriate stage

The Service being commissioned will be aligned to the National Diabetic Eye Screening Service Specification which

This Procurement was advertised in accordance with the requirements of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015
(as amended) (the "Regulations") to the extent that the Regulations relate to services within the scope of Schedule 3 thereto (Social and Other Specific
Services). The Commissioner and AGCSU are, therefore, bound only by those parts of the Regulations applying
to Schedule 3 services.
