This VEAT notice is being applied in accordance with The Health Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023 (the "Regulations") under Direct Award Process B in the absence of new notice suites yet to be released. The Council (the "Relevant Authority") wishes to provide an unrestricted patient choice provision in respect of Community Health Improvement Services (CHIS). The Council is therefore seeking to award contracts, under Direct Award Process B of the Regulations, to eligible providers for the provision of the following CHIS: • Service 1: NHS Health Checks • Service 2: Emergency Hormonal Contraception (EHC) services • Service 3: Long-Acting Reversible Contraception (LARC) • Service 4: Open Access Needle Exchange Services • Service 5: Supervised Consumption Services • Service 6: Community-Based Smoking Cessation Services There is no restriction to the number of eligible providers that may be awarded a contract for the provision of CHIS and there is no restriction on the number of services eligible providers can be awarded. This CHIS Direct Award Process B will be open for 5 years with provision for the Council to extend the process period for a further 3 years and a further 2 years, making a potential process period of up to 10 years. Contracts will be awarded as and when Applications are received and are successful, during the process period. As such contracts may have different start dates ["Commencement Date"], as are subject to when the successful Application was made, but all contracts will expire on the closure of this CHIS Direct Award Process B [the "Expiry Date"]. Activity will be generated by service user choice.
