Minutes:
Councillor Hirani (Lead Member for Adults, Health and Well-being) introduced the report which followed on from a report submitted to the Executive in June 2012 when it was agreed that the Council should lead a procurement process to create a multi-lot Framework on behalf of the West London Alliance group of boroughs plus Southwark and Wandsworth and associated health partners for the provision of Home Support Services. The Framework was split into six lots and advertised in November 2012 to seek initial expressions of interest from care providers. The Cabinet was now being asked to appoint the service providers as required under Contract Standing Order 88.
The Cabinet also had before it Appendix 3 to the report which was not for publication as it contained the following category of exempt information as specified in Schedule 12A of the Local Government Act 1972, namely:
“Information relating to the financial or business affairs of any particular person (including the authority holding that information)”.
RESOLVED:
(i) that approval be given to the appointment to the West London Alliance Framework to provide Home Support of those providers listed in Appendix 1 of the report submitted for a period of four (4) years;
(ii) that the award of Call-Off Contracts to all those providers listed in Appendix 1 of the report submitted be agreed to enable Brent to use these providers for its own home care needs.
