The purpose of this clarification is to confirm that Assessments for non-SAAS funded students shall also be permitted and included as part of the Framework scope.\r\n Please note that this aspect will not form part of the evaluation criteria and Tenderers will not be evaluated on their capability in this area.\"\r\n Kind regards\r\n Andrew",
