Legal Justification
Thomson Reuters is the major suppliers of legal publications used by SCTS. They are publishers of the material we purchase, and having a de-facto monopoly, they are the only one that can provide the material. An attempt had been made by procurement to see if intermediaries were able to provide better agreements but being the material published by Thomson Reuters, they are the only one able to provide a better deal.
