During the course of the contract period the range and scope of these services may be subject to modification and variation to meet the changing needs and requirements of the Council, potential changes in legislation and the changing demands placed on the Council by its customers.

After this tendering process has been completed and the contracts have been awarded the Council will be running further competitions from time to time for the same service. This is to allow new providers to apply to join the framework and to allow those who are unsuccessful first time around to re-apply.

This process will include the same documentation as this tender (with the exception of dates etc). These competitions will be live for the period of 3 to 6 months. However, if the Council receives a high level interest for the service the Council reserves the right
