Members considered a proposal to extend the current contract for fitness suite provision at the Abbey Stadium Sports Centre for a period of two and a half years.

Officers highlighted that this was not the first occasion on which this Contract had been extended but took the Committee through the special circumstances in existence at the Abbey Stadium that made the possibility of obtaining a comparable or better service from an alternative provider extremely unlikely. The Committee was complimentary about the current service provision at the Abbey Stadium and were content, under the present circumstances, to extend the contract.
