Permitted Changes to Contract: *Funding for these services is reliant upon the continued availability of funds from both the Council's core budget and The Homeless Prevention Funding. Funding amounts and sources are uncertain over the contract term and therefore DCC may need to invoke either contract modifications or termination as permitted under the relevant sections of the contract terms and conditions. At the Council's discretion, should the Council acquire further funding, including from different sources, additional services may be required and may slightly differ to that detailed in the Specification but will fall under the remit of the Health, Wellbeing and Night Hub service.
