Legal Justification

There would a be significant cost and inconvenience to the Authority and economic operators associated with tendering and added to this the council does not have the capacity to off board and onboard suppliers and the costs of change would out way the costs of continuing to use the existing supplier. All current terms and conditions of the contract would remain unchanged meaning a seamless continuation of service to the Council.
