It remains necessary that Nova continue to manage the necessary increase in service referrals for the reasons set out in the Relevant Circumstances (above), albeit these additional services were not included in the initial procurement.\nA change in contractor cannot be made for economic and technical reasons. As set out in the Relevant Circumstances (above), it is necessary to increase referrals for Long Covid.  The Pandemic occurred after the initial procurement, at which time the Council's requirements in respect of the Live Well Wakefield Service managing social prescribing for an increased category of service users was unknown. Nova is responsible for the provision of the Live Well Wakefield Service until 31st March 2023. During the remainder of the contract term it is fundamental that the Live Well Wakefield Service and the social prescribing pathways for Long Covid are effectively integrated and managed together to ensure service delivery is effective (with access to established infrastructure, reporting mechanisms and experience). It is not economically or technically feasible for another contractor to be involved in providing only this element of the LWW service and notwithstanding which, for reasons as explained above, competition is very likely to be absent. \nEven where those difficulties could be overcome (which, as explained above, the Council considers not to be possible), this would inevitably result in significant inconvenience and substantial duplication of costs. In particular, the need to monitor the activity of two contractors and the interface between the two during the remainder of the contract term would impose cost and resource demands on the Council, which the Council is not able to meet.  Furthermore, the introduction of a new contractor would delay and obstruct the integrated pathway referral, impacting on the social prescribing offer in the Wakefield district.",
