Consideration was given to the procurement of a new libraries stock contract jointly with Cheshire West and Chester Council. The existing contract was due to expire on 31 March 2012 and a new contract was required in order to ensure that the needs and expectations of users were met and that the Council could fulfil its statutory duty to provide a comprehensive and efficient library service.
RESOLVED
That the Customer Services and Libraries Manager be given delegated authority to award a new contract for libraries stock following procurement.
