  1. To agree that Appendix 1 is not for publication on the basis that it contains information relating to the financial or business affairs of any particular person (including the authority holding that information) as set out in paragraph 3 of Schedule 12A of the Local Government Act 1972 (as amended).

 

  1. To ensure value for money in consideration of being ruthlessly financially efficient, the Council recommends the use of the three frameworks identified in this strategy, and to agree packages suited to each framework in terms of price and availability of suitable products, to deliver the Council’s aspiration for the Civic Campus to be a centre of excellence.

 

  1. To re-use and/or refurbish fit for purpose items that can be reasonably installed, largely those within the Council workspace, and items used to maintain the building’s heritage.

 

  1. To hire items that areused occasionally for ad-hoc events and by way of a trial arrangement before capital investment is made.

 

  1. To approve procurement of furniture in line with this strategy, using a combination of the three frameworks identified in this strategy, purchasing options (i.e., mini competition and/or direct award), and Lots, for the estimated Total Cost included in exempt appendix 1 (the “Total Cost”), over a period of 1 to 5 years.
