Decision details

This report recommends that the Cabinet Member for the Economy:

1.    Notes that appendices 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 are exempt from disclosure on the grounds that they contain information relating to the financial or business affairs of a particular person (including the authority holding that information) under Paragraph 3 of Schedule 12A of the Local Government Act 1972, and in all circumstances of the case, the public interest in maintaining the exemption outweighs the public interest in disclosing the information.

2.    Approves the award of a contract of £19,199,623 to Glenman Corporation Limited (IE210198) for the design and construction of the 42 new homes and new replacement TRA Hall at the 70 – 80 Lillie Road development through to completion, following Cabinet’s approval of both the procurement strategy and capital budget report and associated approval of recommendations therein, in May 2023.

3.    Approves the contingency budget set out in exempt appendix 3 for this contract.

This decision is required to comply with clause 21.1 of the Hammersmith and Fulham Council Contract Standing Orders, according to which Contract Awards for Capital Contracts above a value of £1.5m are to be approved by the relevant Cabinet Member.

·         Option One: Approve the Contract Award as per the recommendations of this report (recommended).
