### Notice of Contract Extension(s)

The contract has been extended beyond its full term from 6/1//24 to 31/5/24.

For the period 3/2/24 to 31/5/24 the contract has been extended in accordance with Regulation 72(1)(c) of the Public Contract Regulations 2015 which states:

c)where all of the following conditions are fulfilled:-

(i)the need for modification has been brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority could not have foreseen;

(ii)the modification does not alter the overall nature of the contract;

(iii)any increase in price does not exceed 50% of the value of the original contract or framework agreement.

This is because it was not possible to award the contract following a tendering exercise.

As a result of the above extension the value of the contract has changed from the original estimated Â£1,295,000 (excluding VAT) in 2020 to Â£1,468,095 (excluding VAT) (or Â£1,761,714 including VAT)

\----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Prior to this, and to allow the completion of negotiations around the longer-term extension outlined above, the contract was extended under Reg 72 (1) (e):

20/1/24- 2/2/24

6/1/24- 19/1/24

There was no requirement to issue a contract award notice for the two temporary two-week extensions listed above.

\----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The contract was also previously fully extended via the existing extension provisions:

Year 3 extension: 6/1/22-5/1/23

Year 4 extension: 6/1/23-5/1/24
