Police, fire services and prisons in Cyprus

1 public buyers declaring "Public order and safety" as their main activity in their TED notices, with at least ten supply contract award notices since November 2023. The most notices first.

In proportion

General government spending on goods, services and investment for public order and safety in Cyprus came to €106 million in 2024 (Eurostat, COFOG). How much of it reaches suppliers through tenders depends on how the country organises the sector — for example whether statutory health insurance is classified in government.
