        "description": "The CAS3 service provides up to 84 nights of temporary accommodation and basic floating support for prison leavers, subject to probation supervision, who would otherwise be at risk of homeless on release. This includes support with budgeting and finding move-on accommodation. The provision is available to all adults released from prison or leaving an Approved Premises (CAS1) or CAS2 (low to medium risk offenders on Home Detention Curfew or Bail), at risk of homelessness, who are under probation supervision. CAS3 will work alongside the Accommodation for Ex-Offenders (AfEO) Scheme administered by the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG), which helps prison leavers find longer-term accommodation in many local authority areas. Taken together, CAS3 and AfEO provide a joined-up pathway from custody to community and into settled accommodation, contributing to reducing reoffending and reducing homelessness. Additional information: Although this does not represent a commitment by the Ministry of Justice to initiate, run or complete a full procurement competition in relation to a contract for the services described, where any procedure is commenced, we would expect this to be in accordance with the Procurement Act 2023."

    "description": "The MoJ intends to conduct early engagement with the market to further shape its requirements for delivering the provision of Community Accommodation Service Tier 3 (CAS3). In issuing this Prior Information Notice, the MoJ is seeking to inform the market of this planned procurement with a view to initiating a series of market consultations in the near future, with no commitment to tender at this time.\nThe CAS3 service provides up to 84 nights of temporary accommodation and basic floating support for prison leavers, subject to probation supervision, who would otherwise be at risk of homeless on release. This includes support with budgeting and finding move-on accommodation. The provision is available to all adults released from prison or leaving an Approved Premises (CAS1) or CAS2 (low to medium risk offenders on Home Detention Curfew or Bail), at risk of homelessness, who are under probation supervision. CAS3 will work alongside the Accommodation for Ex-Offenders (AfEO) Scheme administered by the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG), which helps prison leavers find longer-term accommodation in many local authority areas.
