This decision will be taken under urgency procedures.

Reason for urgency:
Recent high tides and weather events over the last four/five weeks have caused the Pier Landing Stage to deteriorate at an unexpected rate; to such an extent that emergency intervention is required to prevent further deterioration to the structure.

As the works are required in a very short time scale, next available low tides in early December 2021, we do not have the opportunity to tender a contract in line with the Joint Council's Contract Standing Orders and therefore wish to proceed under Clause 8.3.3. Emergency Works to allow direct award of a contract to JT Mackley Co Ltd to undertake all the necessary emergency and preventative works to the Pier and Land stage sub-structures.
