The awarded Buyer will pay for the Goods monthly based on the value and weight of the goods collected during that month both of which will vary month by month. As a result, this agreement constitutes an income generating contract for the Council.

Please note that this is a Sales Contract, and the values provided are estimated figures only. The actual income the Council receives will depend on future market prices for light iron which are currently declining, as well as the actual tonnages collected over the duration of the contract.
As this is a Sales Contract, the appointed suppliers are required to pay the Council for the income generated from the materials collected.
