Everything below was read out of a PDF by a model It is useful and it is not authoritative. The document it came from is linked in the rail, and where the two disagree the document is right.

The report recommends extending Brighton & Hove City Council’s Integrated Sexual Health Services contract with University Hospitals Sussex NHS Foundation Trust for one year to 31 March 2025, with an option to extend it to 31 March 2026. The extension is intended to maintain service continuity, support links with NHS England’s HIV treatment service and allow time for stakeholder engagement and a health needs assessment.

Recommendation

Agree to extend the Integrated Sexual Health Services contract for one year, with the option of a further one-year extension, and grant delegated authority to the Executive Director Health & Adult Social Care to extend the contract subject to satisfactory performance.

Financial impact

The contract value is £3,446,760.00 for financial year 2023/24, funded through the ringfenced Public Health grant, and is assumed to continue for 2024/25 and 2025/26. Funding beyond 2023/24 has not been confirmed, although resources are anticipated to be available through March 2026.

"Decided elsewhere" is not built Finding the same decision in other councils needs semantic matching over decision text, which is part of the search rewrite. Until then, the council's own decisions list is the way through.
