The contract shall commence on 1st October 2020 and expire on 30th September 2023, at the end of the term the contract renews on a 12 month basis providing the YHPSN don’t cancel, we also have the option to renegotiate and extend for a further three years if required.
b) The recommendation is made on the grounds that the YHPSN collaboration work together to secure a favourable deal for the region by procuring the Govroam service on behalf of the partnership.
