## Notice

The Council has awarded a contract to provide this service in accordance with the published Service Specification and Conditions of Contract. The Contract will commence on 1 May 2018 and run until 30 April 2020 with provision for a 12 months extension. The actual spend will depend, amongst other things, on the number and size of the notices published.
