Legal Justification

Since the inception of the contract there have been a number of significant decisions that have re-shaped the contract from how it was originally commissioned. Decisions to date are: • A total reduction of £360k from the Childrens budget from 01/04/24 • A novation of £3,226m from the current contract from Kirklees Council to the ICB from 01/04/24. • Decision regarding removing Yorkshire Childrens Centre (now known as Fresh Futures) and Homestart from the existing Healthy Child Programme Contract and direct award under the new Provider Selection Regime (PSR) from 01/04/2024. This leaves the contract in a fragmented state and in order to ensure effective and quality services continue post 1st April 2024, discussions have taken place with partners and providers on how this can be delivered. There have been ongoing financial challenges with the Healthy Child Programme since the Contract commenced and considering the recent SEND review and focus on mandated contacts it has been decided to redesign and reprofile the remaining elements in the contract. Through discussions between Public Health colleagues and Locala, Locala developed a number of options which were considered and the preferred selected option is to adopt a 2-year fixed model with an annual cost of £7,676,596 from the 1 April 2024. This modification does not render the contract materially different in character and the cumulative change in the lifetime value of the contract since it was entered into is less than 25% of the lifetime value of the original contract. The modification is considered by the contracting authority to be compliant with Reg 13 of the Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023.
