Decision Maker: Director of Public Health

Decision status: Recommendations Approved

Is Key decision?: No

Is subject to call in?: No

Purpose:

The option to extend the current contract for 12 months was available within the contract.

The extension of the contract by 12 months enables the service to be tendered during 2017/18 for a new contract start date of 1 April 2018.

This gives more time to consider the preferred model for moving forward.

Decision:

Extend the contract for Doncaster and Rotherham Stop Smoking Service between DMBC and South West Yorkshire Partnership Foundation Trust by a period of 12 months from 31/03/17 to 31/03/18.

Alternative options considered:

The option of ceasing the contract on 31/03/2017 did not give as much time to undertake full consultation on and development of a new model of service delivery going forward.
