The Services to which this Notice relates fall within the Regulation 74 of the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (Regulations). Although the Contracting Authority may voluntarily adopt certain provisions in the Regulations neither the employment of any particular terminology nor any other indication shall be taken to mean that the Contracting Authority intends to hold itself bound by any of the Regulations save those applicable to services falling within Regulation 74. The Contracting Authority may, from time to time, at its absolute discretion, undertake a renewal (Renewal) of this Framework Agreement during the Term. The Renewal may include, but shall not be limited to, varying the number, scope, extent and description of the Lots, Services and/or Charges (as the case may be), together with the appointment of additional (new) Providers onto the Framework Agreement.
