## Description
This VEAT notice is to inform the market of a modification of a Call-Off contract originally directly awarded to Community Energy Scheme Stoke Limited ("CES", previously "Solarplicity Asset Limited") under an existing Framework (OJEU reference 2015/S 033-056490) for a fully-funded photo-voltaic solution for the UK public sector.  The framework was managed by Alliance Housing, a large social landlord based in the south-west of England, and was accessible to all public bodies (including local authorities).
The modification involves the inclusion of the Council's corporate portfolio of buildings to the original scheme as well as leases for installation of photovoltaic panels for two ground mount sites to increase the carbon reduction potential of the scheme. 
The original scheme will continue to contribute to the provision of affordable warmth for lower income households. The addition of the Council's corporate buildings and additional ground mount sites will increase the carbon reduction potential of the scheme. Stoke-on-Trent City Council believes the modification does not amount to a material variation of the Call-Off contract for the purposes of Regulation 72(8), so is permissible.
