FORMER NORTH WALES HOSPITAL, DENBIGH - OUTLINE BUSINESS CASE
David
Mathews (Land and Property Programme Manager) to present the report.
Decision:
1. That the Board approve the
Outline Business Case for the Former North Wales Hospital project subject to
Welsh and UK Governments' approval of the assurance process, and Jones Bros
Civil Engineering UK Ltd addressing the matters set out in the report, as
described in Section 7, and recommend to the NWEAB that a Full Business Case is
prepared for the Board to consider.
2. To note that as Jones Bros
have been procured already by Denbighshire County Council as the developer for
the site, there is no main procurement that needs to be completed before the
FBC is approved. The Commercial Case sets out how Jones Bros will meet the
Ambition North Wales Procurement Principles themselves and through their use of
sub-contractors. The Funding Agreement to be developed will need to include
provisions to cover this arrangement.
3. That the Board authorise the
Portfolio Director in consultation with the Host Authority Section 151 Officer
and Monitoring Officer to agree draft terms in accordance with this report for
approval by the NWEAB as a basis for the final funding arrangements for the
project which will form the basis of the Grant Offer Letter which will be
agreed by the Board at the Full Business Case stage.
Minutes:
The report was submitted by the Land and Property
Programme Manager.
