The Ministry of Justice awarded a contract to RELX (UK) trading as LexisNexis, Thomson Reuters Professional (UK) Ltd, Hammicks Legal Information Services, and Bloomsbury plc for the provision of legal publications in print and eBook formats.

The contract, valued at £215,000, established a framework agreement for a duration of 4 years.
