RESOLVED:
That the Cabinet agrees to extend the existing contract for the provision and servicing of textile banks with Cookstown Textile Recyclers for one year (from 1 April 2018 to 31 March 2019).
(2) Reasons for the Decision
The Council was the lead authority for the sale of textiles from Councils within the Hertfordshire Waste Partnership. In 2014, the Council undertook a procurement exercise for a new three year contract (with the option of a one year extension) for the provision and servicing of textile banks across Hertfordshire. The Cabinet agreed to award the contract to Cookstown Textile Recyclers.
