Each Lot is allocated a budget as detailed in the Statement of Requirements.
Should additional funds become available under this contract any modifications made to the contract shall be in line with Regulation 74 (1) (a) (b) and (2) of The Procurement Act 2023 and the modification complies with Schedule 8, Para 4 (1) and Para 8 (1) (a) to (d) and section 31(2)(b) which allows modifications to Light Touch Regime procurements, even where such modifications are substantial. So long as the Authority still has regard to the section 12 objectives
It should also be noted that Confirmation of continued MoJ funding (DASV Additional Grant) is awaited (to the value of £400k per annum). This will be added to the contract in line with the funding formula once confirmed.
It is anticipated that additional resources will be accessed by providers via charitable sources to complement and enhance the core offer through full or partial match funding. Any match funding values brought to the contract by the provider will be distinctly separate from the obligations of the Authority and will not account towards the value payable under the contract by the Authority.
No monies can be carried forward into a subsequent financial year and all spending must be evidenced as spent within that financial year.
All underspend must therefore be returned by the Contractor at the end of the Funding year so bidders should not plan for funds being retained if underspent.
The funding is ringfenced for the provision of services for Victims/Survivors of and sexual violence and cannot be spent on other activities.
Funding must not be spent on any of the following:
• religious activities outside of projects benefiting the wider community and not containing religious content; political or lobbying activities.
• loan repayments; or
• activities that make profit for private gain.
• Campaigning activities
• Funding must not be used for capital works e.g. building repairs, but can be used for other capital costs such as ICT equipment to enhance your communications and help reach local people. £1,201,000 p.a.
