<p>As announced in the Written Ministerial Statement on 21 April 2016 (HCWS689), the
contract between the Ministry of Defence and AWE Management Limited (AWEML) has been
reviewed and now falls under the Single Source Procurement Framework which is overseen
by the Single Source Regulations Office.</p><p>As a result of the review, the Ministry
of Defence (MOD) has greater control over the programme, while ensuring that AWE continues
to deliver value for money for the taxpayer. The contract between MOD and AWEML also
provides the opportunity for higher performance incentives, as well as reductions
if targets are not met.</p>
