The information provided below relates to commercial civilian road vehicle lease and hire.
The Ministry of Defence has a central contract in place for hire and leased vehicles including cars, minibuses, coaches and vans, as well as specialist vehicles such as dog vans, horse ambulances and mountain rescue vehicles,
which are booked through the central booking system. The spend on hire and leased vehicles through this contract for the last five financial years is as follows:
Financial Year (FY) | FY2019-20 | FY2020-21 | FY2021-22 | FY2022-23 | FY2023-24 |
Total spend | £116.2 million | £94.6 million | £108.8 million | £132.0 million | £136.5 million |
Please note that there may be circumstances where transportation is booked outside the central booking system, which is not captured here.
