Why can a Challenge be rejected?Service reasons
– services for vulnerable people with highly complex needs
– services jointly commissioned with the NHS– plans would lead to breach of statutory duty or law
Transformation reasons - Decision already made to – cease providing the service– contract out the service– negotiate a spin-out with staff
– must be a formal, documented decision

Why can a Challenge be rejected?Subjective reasons
– EOI is “frivolous or vexatious”– Relevant body lacks the capacity (inc consortia
member)
– Detail of plans are “inadequate or inaccurate”

Issues• What is the market? - Local Authority budgets cut
• Smaller contracts – uneconomical?
• Opening the door for others – private sector?
• Potential for creating conflict with LA• Contradictory policy (Localism vs Gershon)
• Inappropriate windows for EOI• Requirement to provide information• Changing the shape of contracts after EOI
