The report seeks approval to extend Brighton & Hove City Council’s existing Care Homes Contract by nine months, until 31 March 2024, while a longer-term recommissioning process is completed.

Delegate authority to the Executive Director, Health and Adult Social Care to extend the current Care Homes Contract for nine months, until 31 March 2024.

Financial impact

Approximately £48 million for the nine-month extension, based on projected annual external care home provision spending of £64 million in 2022/23; fees paid to providers would not change.
