Rationale
Need for modification brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority/entity could not foresee: The Council has received OHID Grant (Drug and Alcohol and Treatment Recovery Improvement Grant (DATRIG) for 2025-2026, which has been agreed with OHID will be used to fund posts within the Sunderland Integrated Drug and Alcohol Recovery and Harm Minimisation Service which is delivered by CGL and their subcontractor (Recovery Connections). This is a Provider Selection Regime (PSR) contract modification notice. This contract has been modified under Regulation 13(1)(a) Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023 as the contract specifically allowed for modifications to the contract as a result of additional Government funding. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of the Public Contract Regulations 2015 do not apply to this modification. This contract has now been formally modified.
