The Services will include short breaks for disabled children, Section 17 provision (Children in Need) and transport assistance for disabled looked after children (please refer to the Specifications for further information).

The duration of the Framework Agreement will be for an initial three (3) year\] with the option to extend up to a further one (1) year, subject to contractor's performance and at the full discretion of the Authority, and subject to a lawful termination in accordance with the provisions of the Terms and Conditions of the Framework Agreement (please refer to Schedule 10).
