This was the 2nd opening of the Framework Agreement for the provision of short breaks for children and young people with disabilities (CWD) aged 5 to 17 years who live in Norfolk. Full details of the requirement can be found in Schedule 2 - Service Specification, which forms a Schedule to the Terms and Conditions. This Framework is being let under Regulations 74 to 77 of the Public Contract Regulations 2015 (Light Touch Regime), under which the Council has flexibility as to the process or procedure to be used when purchasing certain services of which Short Breaks is one. In this instance, the Council is establishing a framework agreement with multiple suppliers that will set out the terms and conditions for making specific purchases (call –offs). The framework agreement differs from those let under the non-light touch regime in that the Council, exercising its flexibility, may periodically open the framework for new applicants. Additional information: The value is an estimate over the lift of the framework agreement based on current data. it is envisaged that demand and therefor the value will increase.
