Legal Justification

32 (2) The negotiated procedure without prior publication may be used for public works contracts, public supply contracts and public service contracts in any of the following cases:- (b) where the works, supplies or services can be supplied only by a particular economic operator for any of the following reasons:- (ii) competition is absent for technical reasons,... but only, in the case of paragraph (ii)..., where no reasonable alternative or substitute exists, and the absence of competition is not the result of an artificial narrowing down of the parameters of the procurement;" The services are delivered at sites at which LCC holds nomination rights. Both sites are owned and operated by MHA with LCC's access to the sites being through nominations agreements which permit LCC to place people into apartments covered by these services. The nomination agreements as written see the level of access drop from 100% of the identified apartments to 75% of identified apartments, with the onsite provision covering both the apartments LCC has access to as well as the apartments outside of this access. This is even more pertinent as the 75% nomination rights are abided by moving forward. Current and future service users will have the choice to opt out of receiving planned care from the on-site provider delivering care at each scheme. Applying unfettered choice and control to the onsite 24/7 staffing is impractical and not viable but is also not funded by LCC. At both schemes the existing tenants have opted to receive any planned care and support from MHA as the on-site provider as part of their ability to utilise their personal choice in respect of their care and support provider. This approach will ensure MHA remain a care provider option as a part of that choice. No conflict of interests were identified throughout the process.
