Decision:

To award the contract for the Reopening of Adur’s Leisure Facilities.

Reasons for the decision:

The Council has been actively working towards opening leisure facilities post the insolvency of Adur Community Leisure Ltd post the COVID-19 pandemic.

 

Alternative options considered:

The Council instructed SLC Leisure Consultants recommended by Sport England to review delivery of leisure services.  It was agreed as reported to Members at JSC on 3/11/2020 that the most effective way forward is to make a direct emergency award under the Cabinet Officer guidelines and thereafter to carry out a procurement exercise for a longer term supplier of services after a period of 5 years.
