(iv) Authorise the Director of Law and Governance, or an authorised delegate on her behalf, to enter into a 30-year lease, on a full repairing and insuring basis at a peppercorn rent, for the new Parsloes Park football hub facilities with the London Football Trust, subject to satisfactory negotiation of the lease requirements set out in the proposed funding agreement with the Football Foundation;
(v) Approve the procurement of a design and build contract for new sports facilities at Parsloes Park (to be funded as part of the Parklife programme) utilising the existing 3G AGP Framework and the Modular Supplier Framework for ChangingRooms used by The Football Foundation and its funding partners, in accordance with the strategy set out in the report;
(vi) Delegate authority to the Commissioning Director of Culture and Recreation, in consultation with Cabinet Members for Community Leadership and Engagement and Finance, Performance and Core Services, the Chief Operating Officer and the Director of Law and Governance, to conduct the procurement and enter into the contract and all other necessary or ancillary agreements with the successful bidder(s) in accordance with the strategy set out in the report; and
