The Contract provides for no form of exclusivity and the Council is at all times entitled to enter into other contracts and agreements with other Providers for the provision of any Services.\nEach Provider should understand that their submission constitutes an acceptance to the Council of the terms of the Contract.   The contract affords the Provider merely the opportunity to respond to an invitation from the Council for the provision of services.\nWhere a Service is required, the Council will approach the Provider for the service required and confirm with the Provider that they are able to provide the service required within the timescales.
