Rationale
Need for additional works, services or supplies by the original contractor/concessionaire: For the contract to remain sustainable for the supplier, for the expansion of the service across all LAs in Wales; when utilising the extension period so as not to create issues of interoperability, claims of two-tier approaches and significant duplication of costs.
Description
Additional funding is required to place enough resource for services across Wales meeting the needs of increased numbers from the Home Office’s Asylum Dispersal Plan and any potential new immigration routes being established. This modification is not to extend the contract term, but for the additional funding required to sustainably deliver the expanded contract services during the contract extension period.
