<p>We are informed by NHS England that the contract for 'core services' which will
be let by NHS Liverpool Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) on behalf of the CCG, Liverpool
City Council and NHS England has not yet been let. Following a transaction process
led by NHS Improvement (NHSI), Bridgewater NHS FT has been identified as the preferred
bidder, and the submission is being assured by NHSI. When let, the existing Liverpool
Community Health contract will novate to Bridgewater NHS FT. As such, and as with
all other major National Health Service contracts, there is no specific end point.</p><p>
</p><p>Bidders were told prior to re-submitting their bids in August 2016 for the
first two years, that non-recurrent resource would reduce over a period of time.</p><p>Contract
values for 2019/20, 2020/21 and 2021/22 will be negotiated and agreed in advance of
those financial years. As such, no figure can be put on depreciation over a future
five year period by commissioners.</p>
