"description": "Exclusion: The Council has identified that the scope of this procurement falls within a business sector which may be attractive to infiltration by organised crime groups. The Council, therefore, reserves the right to include enhanced probity checks/requirements at both the selection and award stages of the procurement. This may include, but not be limited to, verification that a supplier, or any person with powers of representation, decision or control therein, has not infringed the mandatory grounds for exclusion set out in Regulation 58 of the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015. Tenderers should familiarise themselves fully with this process prior to submitting their tender, failure to provide the above information will result in the tender submission being rejected. In the case of any criminal history convictions checks, the Council may exclude any organisation where the information provided to the City of Edinburgh Council by Police Scotland does not validate fully the information provided by the organisation. TUPE The Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 2006 gives effect to the EC Acquired Rights Directive 2001. The Council is not the employer and therefore is unable to comment on whether or not TUPE applies in relation to any of the particular lots or contracts. Each Tenderer must ensure that they comply in full with their responsibilities under TUPE. Tenderers should note that TUPE may or may not apply to some or all of the personnel currently assigned to undertakings that are currently performing part or all of the duties described in the Service Specifications. Tenderers should, prior to submitting their Tender, take their own specific legal advice to ascertain whether TUPE could be held to apply to such undertakings and, if so, how that would impact on their Tender. Tenderers must indicate in their submission whether they have bid on the basis of TUPE applying. Failure to do so may result in the rejection of the Tender. The Tenderer shall ensure that their decision on whether or not TUPE will apply will be the basis on which any subsequent contract award decision will be based on and the agreed price of the services. The Council reserves the right to reject any Tender which, in its opinion, does not comply with the Service Specification and the requirements of the Price Proposal. In the event that Tenderers consider TUPE does apply, Tenderers should refer to the information that has been provided and / or contact the incumbent provider(s) to obtain the required specific and necessary information about the personnel currently employed in providing the services that are the subject of this tendering exercise. The Council cannot verify the accuracy of any information supplied to Tenderers in respect of personnel currently employed by the incumbent provider(s), and therefore the Council has no liability in respect of such information. It is for each Tenderer to ensure that they have sufficient TUPE information to submit a compliant Tender. The Council accepts no liability for any costs incurred as a result of TUPE either during the Tender process or post Contract award. (SC Ref:623735)",
