AHI S149 - STOP SMOKING SERVICE 1 YEAR EXTENSION: CONTRACT APPROVAL PDF 104 KB Decision: RESOLVED
To agree the 1 year extension of the City and Hackney Stop Smoking Service until the 30th of June 2024 at a maximum value of £924,271
REASONS FOR DECISION
Option 4 has been recommended below on the basis that it will allow for a comprehensive service redesign to take place without disrupting the provision of the current service.
The Public Health department has been heavily involved in the borough’s Covid-19 response since March of 2020. Public Health’s role in the response involved significant additional delivery, such as; creating and managing the City and Hackney Health Protection Board which met weekly to coordinate the response to the pandemic at a local level, developing a local outbreak control plan, coordinating the targeted management of local outbreaks, setting up Covid-19 testing sites, setting up and running a local contact tracing system, creating a new Covid-19 data dashboard and leading key programmes to support the local pandemic response (notably mobilising a Public Health Community Champions programme and a new VCS grants programme). These initiatives, among other aspects of the local pandemic response, have been predominantly delivered using existing staff resources.
During the Covid-19 period, staff resources were utilised to prioritise the borough’s pandemic response. The demand that the pandemic response put upon the Public Health team meant that the service essentially went into business continuity in March 2020. Consequently, many procurement related activities could not take place during this period.
The disruption of the Covid-19 period caused a significant backlog in commissioning activities which is still being worked through. Additional staffing resources have been recruited to support this work and where it is safe to do so, some contracts for non-core services have been allowed to end. However, even with these measures in place it has still been necessary to prioritise and it is for this reason that a 1 year extension to the existing contract is recommended. This will allow sufficient time for the comprehensive re-procurement of this key Public Health service.
During the extension period, a wider review of the tobacco control strategy in Hackney will be completed. Resident and stakeholder engagement will be carried out in order to redesign a more responsive stop smoking service specification, informed by the latest evidence and best practice guidance. The one year extension will also allow sufficient time to ensure continuity of service whilst this comprehensive review and redesign process is completed. In particular, this will allow time for the insourcing of the service to be fully considered and detailed plans developed as appropriate.
Public Health is satisfied with the current performance of the City and Hackney Stop Smoking Service and there is an excellent working relationship with the existing provider. The proposed extension will ensure that a high quality stop smoking offer remains available to City and Hackney residents whilst the procurement process is completed.
With only a limited staff resource available, Public Health has taken a risk based approach to the services it prioritises for procurement. This service is currently delivered by ... view the full decision text for item 7. |

Report for Decision Decision: RESOLVED:
To agree to extend the Young People's Clinical Health and Wellbeing Service contract for up to 1 year until 31 August 2024 at a maximum cost of £540,145.
REASONS FOR DECISION
As the lead department responsible for the local pandemic response, The Public Health service has been heavily involved in the borough’s Covid-19 response since March of 2020. Public Health’s role has included significant additional delivery, such as; creating and managing the City and Hackney Health Protection Board which met weekly to coordinate the response to the pandemic at a local level, developing the local outbreak control plan and coordinating the targeted management of local outbreaks, setting up Covid-19 testing sites, setting up and running a local contact tracing system, creating a new Covid-19 data dashboard and leading key programmes to support the local pandemic response (notably mobilising a Public Health Community Champions programme and a new VCS grants programme). The initiatives, among other aspects of the local pandemic response, have been predominantly delivered using existing staff resources.
The demand that the pandemic response put upon the Public Health team meant that the service essentially went into business continuity in March 2020. Consequently, many day to day activities relating to commissioning and procurement were not able to take place.
The disruption of the Covid-19 period caused a significant backlog in commissioning activities which is still being worked through. Additional staffing resources have been recruited to support this work and where it is safe to do so, some contracts for non-core services have been allowed to end. However, even with these measures in place it has still been necessary to prioritise e.g., as a higher value contract the procurement of the Health Visiting service has been prioritised over CHYPS Plus (the Health Visiting Business Case Report was agreed by CPIC in October 2022).
CHYPS Plus provides a vital service to at risk children and young people, including access to appropriate clinical interventions related to substance misuse, sexual health, and mental and physical wellbeing. This extension will ensure that there is an appropriate legal framework in place for these services to continue.
The current strategy will be reviewed and resident and stakeholder engagement will be carried out in order to redesign a more responsive service specification, informed by the latest evidence and best practice guidance, for re-procurement next year. The one year extension will allow this review work to be undertaken and allow time for insourcing of all or part of the service to be fully considered and plans developed as appropriate. This will also enable the inclusion of the holistic specialist services for young people currently provided by CHYPS Plus to be considered as part of a broader integration project titled ‘Super Youth Hub’ (SYH). The SYH aims to bring together a range of preventative and treatment services for school age children and adolescents including services for; wellbeing and mental health support, sexual health, substance misuse, primary care and training and employment. The SYH will be a place-based service with ... view the full decision text for item 8. |

To approved the Award of the contract for Communal Heating Systems to Bidder 1 in Appendix A (Exempt) for a term of 5 years with an option to extend the contract for up to a further 5 years at a maximum value of £20m.
REASONS FOR DECISION:
March 2019: Approval of the Housing Asset Management Strategy 2019-2027, by Cabinet on 25 March 2019. This provides an overarching framework for investment decision-making across the Council’s homes and estates. It sets out the ambitions that Hackney has for the quality of its homes and the priorities that will be established to ensure that the limited available resources are directed at the greatest need.
June 2019: Approval of the Business Case for Construction Contracts for Planned Capital Works to Hackney Council Housing, by Cabinet Procurement Committee (now Cabinet Procurement and Insourcing Committee) dated 11 June 2019. This provides the approach to be adopted to reprocure the planned capital works projects.
