SSRO Referrals
This collection contains documents related to the SSRO’s consideration of matters referred to it. We encourage the Ministry of Defence and contractors in qualifying contracts to contact us before making any referrals, either by email to [email protected] or by telephone to 020 3771 4785.

Accepted Referrals
Unless there are good reasons not to do so, the SSRO will publish the acceptance of a referral on this website setting out a brief summary of the matter referred. In doing so, the SSRO will anonymise the information and protect the confidentiality of the referring parties.
Guidance
The SSRO may be asked to give an opinion or make a determination on matters related to the regulatory framework in specific circumstances set out in the Act and Regulations. The SSRO’s guidance documents set out the matters which may be referred and the procedures the SSRO will follow when giving an opinion or making a determination.
Published opinions
The SSRO’s general approach is to publish summaries or redacted versions of its opinions. Opinions are contract-specific, and care should be taken before applying the conclusions to other circumstances and contracts. All published opinions are listed below (in reverse order of publication).
Published determinations
