Title:
UKRI RE21695 MiSeq Silver Support Plan- Framework Direct award

https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/3bb7663f-9903-410f-be97-23bb09e2ef2c
I had requested information from UKSBS regarding which framework agreement was used in the procurement of the above contract. However, they advised that yourselves are the data holders for this information, and that they did not have the answer to my question. Would you be able to briefly advise on this matter?
What I am looking for is the name of the framework agreement this contract was called off from (e.g., CCS G-Cloud 12, or NHS SBS's Construction Consultancy Services 2). If it is a rarer or internal framework agreement or DPS, I would appreciate if you could provide a link to the framework's Contract Finder or TED listing.

Upon researching the expeditions done by David Bunger and Admiral Byrd. And hearing how vast land of warm pools were present in Antarctica (called the Bunger Oasis) and mountains of coal as described by Byrd.
Their reports concluded that these findings were very important and deemed necessary to research further. So how come governments nowadays merely deem Antarctica as a no enter zone, government only, and nothing particularly exciting. Only ice and penguins here.
Judging by the first reports of the first explorers of Antarctica, and the apparent "Antarctic Treaty" that came into place that prevented any public person to go below 60 South latitude. The government are hiding both more land and more resources, whilst they continue to tax us for energy crisis and we still have homeless problems…
I would like information on the work being done in Antarctica. Because for there to be more and more bases being built on so called boring ice, then why is this? What is so exciting there? And why are these Bunger Oasis not visible on Google maps? Or any maps? Why are there not clear imagery from space satellites? Something is not adding up and I would appreciate information on what is being done there.
