That contract procedure rules be waived in
respect of the extension of the contract for Housing Related
Floating Support Service for People with a Physical or Sensory
Impairment, for a further year, to end on 30 September 2019, at a
cost of £107,000.
Reasons - (a) The request to extend the contract for a further year
to 30 September 2019 is to enable a strategic review of the service
to be carried out and allow the timing of other appropriate
contracts to be aligned.
(b) The contract represents value for money as the prices are set
on the former tendered rates.
(c) The direct award is not a breach of EU Procurement Rules.
