## Description
The purpose of this Voluntary Ex-ante Transparency Notice is to inform the market of the additional works / services to be performed by UBB Waste (Essex) Limited following the amendment of its contract with the Authority for the design, construction, commissioning operation and handback of a mechanical biological treatment (MBT) facility at the Tovi Eco-park (Basildon, Essex).  The facility in question did not pass the acceptance tests specified in the contract which led to the Authority seeking to terminate the contract as well as commencing litigation against the contractor. The Authority has given notice that it is proposing to take a decision to enter into an Amendment and Settlement Agreement to settle that litigation and to amend the handback requirements of the contract on the basis that the site will be cleared and returned to ECC in a condition that will allow for its future redevelopment.  It is expected that the modified contract will have a term expiring in 2040.
These additional works / services are essential to restore the pre-contractual position and, to the extent that they are not or may not be encompassed by the terms of the original contract, they form an integrated part of a planned settlement agreement between the Authority and the contractor to draw to a conclusion the litigation between the parties.
