Issue - meetings

Background:

This report sought permission to commence the procurement of the Health Visiting and School Nursing Service (0-19) Contract.

This report was originally considered by Cabinet on 13 June 2023, however, it contained incorrect information about the preferred procurement procedure.  This report corrected those errors and was therefore re-submitted to the Cabinet for approval.

Reasons:

There is a limited number of providers able to deliver said service and therefore the recommended process will ensure all suitable providers are able to access and bid for the opportunity.
