    • Change March 2020 it was agreed that a 1 year contract extension would be awarded to allow for the achievement of sufficient volumes that, though still below initial targets, will enhance the robustness of the evaluation., Need for modification brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority/entity could not foresee: The volume of referrals, and consequently the number of starts and completions of interventions have not reached the anticipated profile. As of December 2020, there were 3501 referrals over the life of the contracts, significantly under the target of 7679 by this date, and total starts at less than a third of expectations. Though intervention delivery was adapted to digital approaches, Covid-19 had a negative impact on referral rates. Whilst referral rates recovered, Covid-19 presents continued uncertainty. Given these lower volumes, the analytical value of the forecast volumes has been considered . These forecasts have been based on historical volumes rather than on the much higher contractual volumes. International studies of similar interventions have often demonstrated large effect sizes; it should therefore be possible to detect these effects using lower volumes than was initially thought.
