  10. I would be most grateful if you would provide me, under the Freedom of Information Act, details in respect to Family Support contracts.

    For clarification Family Support contracts are typically contracted services that are related to Family Hubs / Children's Centres, Supported Accommodation, Community services, SEND services, any services involving supporting children and families  etc...

    The details required are:

    • What family support contracts/services do you currently commission or deliver in house (including early intervention, prevention and edge of care)?

    • If commissioned, how was the contract commissioned? Please confirm if it was direct award or via a formal procurement process.

    • Please can you confirm the supplier/provider of each of these family support services/contracts?

    • Please can you confirm the annual and total contract values of each of these contracts/services?

    • Please can you confirm the start date & duration of each of these contracts?

    • Could you please provide a copy of the service/product specification given to all bidders for when these contracts were last advertised?

    • Within these services, do you use a keyworker model for delivery?

    • Please can you confirm if there is an extension clause in each of these contracts and, if so, the duration of the extension?

    • Has a decision been made yet on whether each of these contracts is being either extended, direct awarded or recommissioned? And if so what is the decision?

    • Who is the senior officer (outside of procurement) responsible for each of these contracts?

    For the avoidance of doubt, the provision of individual names and contact details under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 does not give consent to receive direct marketing via any media and expressly does not constitute a 'soft opt-in' under PECR.

    • Are there any planned market engagement events for each of these contracts if they are being recommissioned?

    • Are there any new family support contracts you intend to commission in the next 36 months that have already been confirmed/given permission to proceed?
