RESOLVED: That officers be authorised to seek tenders, as described in the report.
Reason for Decision: To ensure services to address Domestic and Sexual Violence could be provided as effectively and competitively as possible. A single provider would enable better co-ordination of services and there was a prospect of reducing the management overheads as one management team would be able to cover the whole service.
Alternative Options Considered and Rejected: As set out in the officer report.
Conflict of Interest relating to the matter declared by Cabinet Member / Dispensation Granted: None.
