Notice Title

This is a subscriptions contract where the Supplier provide DHSC with a CLA Licence which is regulated by the government through the collective licencing body, offering DHSC a number of advantages including permission to reuse, share content, to use text and images from books, newspapers, online publications etc. while abiding with copyright regulations. It saves time as it prevents asking for consent from individual copyright owners every time DHSC wanted to copy, print, email or save any documents.

Awarded value for Year 1 is: PS23,692.08 The awarded value per year may differ from the previous year depending on the market climate, thus a Variation form will be filled out each year to reflect that change and the total awarded value will increase. For example, Year 2 spend could be PS25,000 and Year 3 could be PS20,000 which would bring the total awarded value up to PS68,692.08 There is an option for the Buyer to terminate the contract after 3 years if necessary which is set out in the contract attached (see Special Terms).
