Minutes:

9.1       The Lead Member Adult Social Care and Health considered a report seeking approval to make direct awards for the three contracts relating to the care provision in the East Sussex County Council’s six Extra Care housing units.

9.2       The Lead Member RESOLVED to:

1. Agree to the direct award of the three care contracts that relate to the Council’s Extra Care housing provision, as set out in paragraph 2.6, to the current providers for a 15-month period, to 30 January 2023; and

2. delegate authority to the Director of Adult Social Care to take all necessary actions to give effect to the implementation of the above recommendation in consultation with relevant stakeholders.

Reason

9.3       The direct award of the three care contracts that relate to the Council’s Extra Care housing provision, to the current providers for a 15-month period, to 30 January 2023 enables the Council to undertake more comprehensive engagement and consultation with providers and clients. This will inform the future service model and align these services to the Home Care contracts for tender via a joint approved list to ensure service resilience and best value.
