Purpose

The purpose of this report is to seek
permission to review and update the Dynamic Purchasing System
Agreement, including the service specification, for the provision
of a locally commissioned community pharmacy Emergency Hormonal
Contraception (EHC) service (DPS) in accordance with Rule 17 of the
Contract Procedure Rules.

Content

RESOLVED - That:
Option B: Approval to vary the DPS to clarify the terms and
conditions, to update the service specification, and to align the
call-off terms with the DPS terms and conditions to encourage more
pharmacies to sign up and deliver the EHC service and to vary the
specification of the Service Level Agreement with CHL to reflect
the DPS updates. This will result in local residents having access
to free and timely use of effective Emergency Hormonal
Contraception provisions within their neighbourhood.
