Issue - meetings

To consider a report of the Group Manager for Corporate Property and Commercial Assets/Deputy Chief Executive (S151) requesting the Cabinet to review the results of the Tiverton Town Regeneration tender and to award the JCT Design & Build 2016 Contract with amendments.

The Cabinet had before it a *report of the Group Manager for Corporate Property and Commercial Assets requesting the Cabinet to review the results of the Tiverton Town Regeneration tender and requesting it to reward the contract.

The Chairman informed the meeting that it had become clear in recent days that the members of the Cabinet required more detail with regard to the overarching aims of the proposed works and the financial considerations which would underpin them, there was a need for the Cabinet to be comfortable with the information and proposal prior to proceeding with a decision. There was no intention to look at the tender process and there would be no discussions with any of the bidders.

It was therefore

RESOLVED that the item be deferred to allow for further discussions to take place.

(Proposed by the Chairman)
