Description
Special Term 1: This is a zero-volume guarantee provision, and all indicative volumes are for illustrative purposes only. Actual volumes may fluctuate due to the unpredictable nature of this requirement. The Authority has identified a known risk that there is the possibility that the required quantities may significantly increase due to [e.g. policy changes, external demand, or operational needs]. While this risk is acknowledged, it cannot be fully quantified or addressed at the time of Contract award. In the event this risk materialises, the Authority reserves the right to modify the contract in accordance with the Procurement Act 2023, subject to the conditions set out in Regulation 18(2)(z) and Schedule. Special Term 2: Collection and disposal of expired nasal Naloxone Kits is not a requirement of the Contract at the time of Tender, however, if the Supplier possess the capability to collect and dispose of expired nasal Naloxone Kits, in accordance with relevant waste disposal regulations, this may be a service that the Authority chooses to utilise in the future. Should the Supplier possess the capability to delivery this service, activation would be agreed upon separately and in advance. The Authority reserves the right to determine whether to activate this service based on operational needs.
