Indicators

• Contract modified due to unforeseen circumstances.

Legal Justification

Following contract award, the nominated partner of the key developer for Extra Care provision unexpectedly withdrew from the scheme, which neither the key developer or the Authority could have foreseen. The key developer has attempted to engage another interested partner but the indications are that there is no appetite for the age inclusive element within the overall project and therefore this element should be withdrawn, in line with conditions set within Regulation 72(1)(c). It is the view of the local authority that the change does not alter the overall nature of the contract. Furthermore any increase in price does not exceed 50% of the value of the original contract. It is therefore proposed to remove the requirement for an age inclusive extra care scheme from the requirement for the overall project.
