NHS Cheshire and Merseyside ICB have approved a modification to a contract that was awarded under the Public Contract Regulations 2015. The existing contract to deliver mental health support to children and young people in Liverpool and Knowsley started on 1 April 2024 and is due to expire on 31 March 2027.
The cumulative value of modifications has surpassed the £500,000 threshold for transparency across the contract term. This modification notice has therefore been published in accordance with the Provider Selection Regime 2023 Schedule 12. The below modifications apply to the period 1st April 2024-31st March 2027:

Not all of these modifications fall under the remit of PSR but have been included for the purposes of transparency.
The original contract value was £10,274,059. The modifications listed above amount to £1,733,932, therefore the modified contract value is £12,007,991.
The modification was approved by the Liverpool Place Senior Leadership Team in line with the scheme of
reservation and delegation and there is no declaration of interest relating to these decisions. There is no change to the length of the contract which is due to expire on 31st March 2027.
