NOTICE OF PRIVATE ITEM

 

<AI1>

Everybody Benefits Framework Procurement

 

The County Council’s Constitution provides that at least 28 clear days before a private meeting (a meeting, or part of a meeting, of the executive decision making body during which the public are excluded) the executive decision-making body must give notice of its intention to hold the meeting in private (including a statement of the reasons for holding it in private) by making the notice available at County Hall and at the venue for the meeting (if different) and publishing it on the Council’s website.

 

It is anticipated that on 16 May 2024 a report regarding contracts which underpin the Council’s current Everybody Benefits Framework and which expire on 30th November 2024 will be considered by Assistant Chief Executive - HR & Business Support. The intention to make this key decision is published on the Forward Plan.. The authority is looking to re-procure a framework for the provision of employee benefit discounts with salary sacrifice schemes.
It is proposed that the tender is divided into 6 lots:
Lot 1: Employee discount platform
Lot 2: Green car scheme
Lot 3: Home technology scheme
Lot 4: Cycle to work scheme
Lot 5: Childcare voucher scheme
Lot 6: Health cash plan scheme
The decision to be taken relates to procurement of the overarching Framework which has a significant published contract value, with the spend through the framework higher than £500k when it comes to employee participation. This is an in/out spend resulting in the council saving on the participation rather than spending from existing budgets.

 

 

The report is likely to contain exempt information. The information anticipated to be contained in the report is of the type defined in paragraph 3 of Part 1 of Schedule 12A to the Local Government Act 1972 (Information relating to the financial or business affairs of any particular person (including the authority holding that information) ) and it is considered that the public interest in maintaining the exemption outweighs the public interest in disclosing the information. This part of the meeting may therefore be held in private.

 

This Notice gives notice of the intention to hold this part of the Assistant Chief Executive - HR & Business Support meeting in private.
