Rationale
Need for modification brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority/entity could not foresee: The original RWT partnership agreement was in accordance with the Public Contract Regulations 2015 and the Council's Contract Procedure Rules. This arrangement now falls under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR) 2023 and Council's Contract Procedure Rules. Under PSR for the Council to modify (change/vary) a contract during its term, consideration must be given to Regulation 13 of the PSR which sets out the limited circumstances under which a contract can be modified without the need to undertake a new procurement. The provisions of Regulation 13 (1)(d) of the PSR allows the Council to vary a contract where the modification is attributable to a decision of the relevant authority, and both of the criteria in Regulation 13(2) are met. The criteria are (a) the modification does not render the contract or framework agreement materially different in character, and (b) the cumulative change in the lifetime value of the contract or framework agreement since it was entered into or concluded is - (i) below £500,000; or (ii) less than 25% of the lifetime value of the original contract or framework agreement when it was entered into or concluded.
