Decision details

Decision Maker: Director of Communities, Economy and Transport

Decision status: Recommendations Approved

Is Key decision?: Yes

Is subject to call in?: Yes

Purpose:

The decision was taken to extend the current contract rather than retender, due to market uncertainty and limited suppliers. The extension forms part of the original tender so by using it we are not exposed to this volatility.

Decision:

The Services Agreement for the processing and disposal of dry mixed recyclables will be extended for a period of two years until 28 June 2026, as allowed for in Clause 3.3 of the Contract.

Alternative options considered:

Retender.
Do nothing.
