The Cabinet will be asked to consider and agree proposals for the procurement of a Youth Inclusion Project
Received a report from the Cabinet Member for Crime, Justice and Communities on proposals for the retendering of the contract for the delivery of a youth crime prevention service (Youth Inclusion Project), the current contract for which is due to expire on 31 March 2011.
The Cabinet Member referred to the successes that have been achieved under the current service and advised that a review, as part of the preparations for the new contract, has identified further improvements that can be realised through, for example, basing the service within the Multi-Agency Locality Teams (MALTs) which would improve access for key target groups of young people from across the Borough.
It was also noted that the new contract will contain relevant break clauses in the event that the external funding which supports the project is not forthcoming beyond 2011/12.
Agreed, in order to assist the Council to achieve its Community Priorities “Safe”, “Fair and Respectful”, “Prosperous” and “Inspired and Successful”, to authorise the Corporate Director of Adult and Community Services to procure and award an initial three-year term contract for the provision of Youth Inclusion Project services on the terms detailed in the report.
