Funding for the services as laid out in the specification will be provided from the following grants from the Office of Health Improvement and Disparities (OHID), the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) and the Department of Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC) and will therefore be subject to annual agreement and variation: * Rough Sleepers Drug and Alcohol Treatment (RSDATG) Grant * Supplementary Substance Misuse Treatment and Recovery Grant (SSMTRG) * Supplementary Substance Misuse Treatment and Recovery Housing Support Grant (SSMTRHSG) The Service Provider shall ensure that SSM Service delivery models are compatible with and enhance existing treatment services delivered in Oxfordshire, and exceptional partnership working with the existing CAD Service will be vital to achieving a joined up seamless approach for Oxfordshire residents.
