Reference: D743
Decision Maker: Deputy Chief Executive and Director of Finance
Decision status: Recommendations Approved
Is Key decision?: No
Is subject to call in?: No
To enter into a deed of novation with
Rossendales Ltd (Rossendales) and Marston (Holdings) Ltd (Marston)
which will affect the transfer of all contractual obligations from
Rossendales to Marston and release Rossendales from all liabilities
associated with the said contract and bestow those liabilities upon
Marston.
To enter into the deed of novation with
Rossendales Ltd and Marston (Holdings) Ltd.
The deed of novation will allow the current
contract for the provision of Enforcement Agent services to
continue.
The alternative would be to not enter into the
deed of novation. The consequence of this would be that all
decisions relating to the contract would fall to Marston as the
“parent” company and any decision to wind up
Rossendales would result in the termination of the existing
contract and therefore the loss of the provision of Enforcement
Agent services to the Council.
