Decision Maker: Officer Decision

Decision status: Recommendations Approved

Is Key decision?: No

Is subject to call in?: No

Purpose:

We have received Rough Sleeper Initiative funding for the period 2022-2025 and propose to continue the core mental health provision with a contract from 01/04/2024 to 31/03/2026 and a contract value of £192,572.

Decision:

to waive the market testing required by section 3.10.2 of Contract Standing Orders and direct award to the mental health service provided by the

NHS via Norfolk and Suffolk Foundation Trust (NSFT).

 

Reason:

The Norfolk and Suffolk Foundation Trust (NSFT) are the only local mental health trust and there is no other provider able to deliver this service. Having services embedded in the Trust enables referrals to other mental health services, access to treatment and health records.
