Decision status: Recommendations Approved

Is Key decision?: Yes

Is subject to call in?: Yes

Purpose:

Broadband Contract 3 will finish on 30th June 2022. Due to the project being externally funded, the contract cannot be extended beyond this date, so the Combined Authority intends to formally close the programme at the end of Q1 22/23.

Decision:

(i)               Once the DEFRA funded infrastructure deployment within Contract 3 Broadband programme completes on 30th June 2022, the Managing Director authorises the Director of Delivery to implement either Option 1 or Option 5 as detailed in Exempt Appendix 1 to bring the contract to a conclusion. The contents of Appendix 1 are not for publication

 

(ii)              The board approved 13.2, recognising we are working towards option 5 and should that not become a viable option, approved the enacting of 13.1, Option 1 and delegated to Director of Delivery to authorise.
