Minutes:

The report was presented to the Committee by Mr Jim McGowan, Head of Environmental Protection. There were two reasons why the report was presented to the Committee:

 

1. Following the report presented to the Public Protection & Safety PDS Committee on September 28th 2016, the Portfolio Holder agreed to re-tender the Stray and Abandoned Dogs Service and Pest Control Service contracts.

 

2. The final extension on Bromley’s contracts for the Stray and Abandoned Dogs and Pest Control Services expired on 30th April 2017. Unfortunately the procurement process for these contracts would not be completed in time for the new contracts to start on the 1st May 2017.

 

The report recommended that the contracts be extended to provide the requisite time for LBB to complete the European Tender procurement process.

 

RESOLVED that

 

(1) The Dog Warden Service contract is extended from 1st May 2017 to 31st January 2018

 

(2) The Kennelling Service contract is extended from 1st May 2017 to 31st January 2018

 

(3) The Rehoming Service contract is extended from 1st May 2017 to 31st January 2018

 

(4) The Pest Control contract is extended from 1st May 2017 to 31st January 2018
