Notice Title

Occupational Health & Health Surveillance Services

Notice Description

Barnsley Hospital to deliver an Occupational Health service to meet the needs of the council and other organisations that access OH services

Procurement Information

This contract will be awarded directly to Barnsley Hospital under a Horizontal Exemption (Counterparty Exempted Contracts). Legal have provided the following advice: From the legislation, a contract between 'contracting authorities' are exempt insofar that they are collaborating to deliver shared public services (e.g. health, social care, education) in addition to that: * The arrangement is entirely in the public interest (i.e. not for profit or commercial gain); * No more than 20% of the activity is for non-public purposes. Therefore, Barnsley Council working with SWYFT or Barnsley Hospital to deliver integrated care services will likely come into play here.
