To seek approval for the award an interim domestic gas contract in Housing Services.
Decision type: Key
Decision status: For Determination
Notice of proposed decision first published: 29/11/2022
This decision will be taken under urgency procedures.
Reason for urgency:
Special Urgency Notice
An urgent decision is required that has not been on the Executive Forward Plan for the requisite 28 day period. If the Co-Portfolion Holder for Housing resolves to approve the recommendations in the report, there is a deadline of 30 November 2022 to award the interim contract. The Mayor's agreement has been sought and obtained to treat this as an urgent decision, which will not be subject to call in by the relevant overview and scrutiny committee pursuant to paragraph 11.4 (Call-in and Urgency) of the Overview and Scrutiny Procedure Rules. This is because the time it would take to allow any call in to be made and dealt with would clearly exceed the deadline of 30 November. Given this, it is considered that a delay caused by the application of the call-in process would seriously prejudice the Council’s and the public’s interests in this matter.
