To agree the County Counicl's responses to Central Government consultation

The Supporting People (SP) Programme aims to increase the opportunities and improve the life chances of people with vulnerabilities in East Sussex. The SP Programme offers accessible, high quality and affordable housing support services that promote independence, prevent crisis and complement existing and new housing, health, social care and children’s services.

It was decided that this contract should be awarded to Salvation Army Housing Association (SAHA) via a light touch open tender process (Option one) as theirs was the most economically advantageous tender.

East Sussex has 1,598 residents accessing drug treatment, 1,118 of which are accessing support for opiates and 739 residents accessing alcohol treatment. The main urban areas of the county – Eastbourne and Hastings have the highest numbers of residents in treatment. However, there are significant treatment populations in other parts of the county. East Sussex has experienced a significant drop in presentations for alcohol since 2013. It is also a priority area for Public Health England (PHE) due to the number of drug related deaths (DRDs).

Substance Misuse treatment in East Sussex is provided by CGL under the brand STAR. There are 2 hubs - 1 in Eastbourne and 1 in Hastings and community services are provided in other parts of the county.

There have been changes in the approach to drug and alcohol treatment in East Sussex since the previous tender process. This includes the removal of highly prescriptive outcomes and payment by results (through a recent waiver). The new service specification will identify outcomes for service users but the emphasis will be on the provider to show how these will be delivered. This is further underlined by a move towards long term recovery, making a positive contribution, wider integration with their local community rather than abstinence.

It was decided that this contract should be awarded to Change Grow Live via an open tender process (Option one) as theirs was the most economically advantageous tender.

Transforming Care is the national programme to reduce dependence on specialist inpatient beds for people with a learning disability and/or autism with behaviour that challenges. East Sussex County Council (ESCC) is part of the Sussex Transforming Care Partnership (TCP) along with all local authorities and Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) in Sussex.
The proposal is to develop a site in South Chailey that will soon be vacated, to provide supported living services, in self-contained flats, for six people who have a learning disability and complex challenging behaviours plus a four bed respite service for people from the same cohort.

4 out of 6 contractors on lot 2 of the framework submitted expressions of interest and all 4 submitted bids for the contract.

Sunninghill Construction Co received the best overall score in the tender evaluation and was ultimately awarded the contract.

It was decided that this contract should be awarded to Sunninghill Construction Co via the Orbis Construction Framework (Option one) as theirs was the most economically advantageous tender.
