The Department has guaranteed to buy a certain level of usage from Defence Management. If its actual usage is below this level, then its payments to Defence Management are not decreased. However the level of this guaranteed usage is only fixed for a certain number of years and then declines over the rest of the contract (paragraph 2.27).
