These journeys are commonly planned e.g. trips to and from school or unplanned e.g. one-off journeys to an appointment. Those who access our services using taxis may require additional support or supervision which must be provided through a Passenger Assistant and arranged by the taxi Provider. On some occasions a parent may be required to be the Passenger Assistant.

In order to address these needs the DPS will be split into two categories: * Category 1: General Passenger Transport Provision * Category 2: Specialist Passenger Transport Provision Providers who apply for the Specialist category must demonstrate that they and their Drivers/Passenger Assistants have extensive prior experience dealing with challenging behaviours. Providers can bid for either Category or for both Categories. Additional information: Bidders Events have been planned in order to explain the requirements for this particular procurement.
