Decisions:
Councillor Williams explained that the procurement exemption related to matters carried forward from the previous market contractor. SSE had carried out a compliance assessment of the site and found that repair and maintenance works were required to the lighting and electrical systems. Two quotes had been obtained and the works started. The downlights were an issue which had been raised by the traders, they would be on a timer and also provided emergency exit lighting for the buffet restaurant.
Following a question from Councillor Bell, Councillor Williams explained that whilst the market generated income it also had maintenance costs. The Mayor commented that the market was well managed presently and had a clearer collection regime.
RESOLVED:
That Cabinet notes the exemption has been given.
