        "description": "The Council is entering into an agreement for lease to take a lease of 20 to 40 years of the Property from the Landlord which the Council is proposing to sub-let to GCL or another company under control of the Council. GCL is a wholly owned company of the Council,\nThe Landlord intends to construct 79 residential units, as well as commercial and ancillary areas on the Property which is being acquired by the Landlord from a third party unconnected with the Council. These works will be funded by the Landlord. The Council is not conducting a procurement process under the Public Contracts Regulations ( “PCR 2015”) because the agreement for lease comprises an exempt land transaction and is not a public works contract or a public works concession contract pursuant to the Concession Contracts Regulations 2016 (“CCR 2016”). Neither the Council nor GCL are imposing legally enforceable obligations to carry out works nor have they specified requirements for the development. The original planning permission for the development was obtained prior to the involvement of GCL and the Council as potential tenants.\nThe Council/GCL will be permitted under the lease to grant tenancy agreements on the commercial and private residential elements of the Property up to a maximum of five (5) years for each residential unit and to underlet the Affordable Housing units for more than five (5) years. The Council will have the right to purchase the Property for a nominal sum at the end of the 40 year lease. The lease, which will be a full repairing and insuring lease, will be subject to annual index linked rent reviews with any changes subject to limits as to the maximum increase",

    "procurementMethodRationale": "This is a contract for the acquisition of a leasehold interest and rental of the Property which is exempt from the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 under Regulation 10(1)(a). The Council has already published a Voluntary\nEx Transparency Notice detailing the exempt land transaction, and this Contract Award Notice serves to confirm the position already set out in that notice. The Property is being acquired by the Landlord from a third party unconnected with the Council, original planning permission for the development was obtained prior to the involvement of GCL and the Council as potential tenants and the development is being funded by the Landlord who will enter into a development agreement for the construction of the Property with a third party developer.\nAny works and general maintenance and management services being undertaken by the Landlord are incidental to the lease arrangements and the Council is not specifying any works, hence the agreement for lease does not constitute a public works or services contract or concession contract.\nThe Council has not published a contract notice for the opportunity pursuant to the PCR 2015 or the Concession Contracts Regulations 2016, because the transaction detailed above does not comprise a ‘public works or services contract’ or a ‘concession’ which would require formal procurement pursuant to the UK’s public procurement regime. Instead, the agreement for lease comprises a land transaction which is excluded from the scope of the procurement regime, pursuant to regulation 10(1)(a) and/or regulation 4(2)(b) of the PCR 2015 and/or regulation 10(11)(a) and/or regulation 20(4)(a) of the CCR 2016.\nThe cumulative requirements for a public works contract is not met. Neither the Council nor GLC are setting the specification for works. The works involved– construction of residential and commercial property and ancillary accommodation are being specified by the Landlord and its developer. The Council and GLC are not exercising control or decisive influence over the construction or design of the development and their role is limited to inspection rights in respect of the development, updates on progress and some limited consultation on desirable outcomes. As noted above, there is no legally enforceable obligation on the Landlord to undertake the construction.",
