    Consideration of the Request to the Council to use Statutory Planning Powers to Facilitate Delivery of the O2 Masterplan Planning Permission (SC/2025/12)

    Report of the Cabinet Member for Planning and a Sustainable Camden 

     

    This report considers a request to the Council from Landsec to consider using its planning powers under Section 203 of the Housing and Planning Act 2016 to facilitate the delivery of the comprehensive O2 Masterplan scheme (ref:2022/0528/P). Granted planning permission subject to a s106 agreement in December 2023, it secures significant public benefits including the provision of 35% affordable housing.

     

    This would involve Camden acquiring an interest in the relevant land in the O2 masterplan site for planning purposes under section 227 of the of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (“TCPA 1990”) which would in turn engage S203 of the Housing and Planning Act 2016.  If used, these powers would override third party rights including the rights of access enjoyed by the car showrooms to the service road along the north of the site which sits in Landsec's ownership and falls with Phase 1 and 3 of the approved scheme and allow the 02 masterplan to be delivered and enable the significant public benefits to be realised.

     

    The report seeks “in principle” approval to the use of the powers because the Council’s Constitution sets out the Cabinet’s role in having oversight of land and property resources. The Cabinet also has overall responsibility for acquisitions and disposal of interests in land and to agree acquisitions of property (both freehold and leasehold). The use of these powers would involve acquisition of land (if only for a relatively temporary period) in order for the powers to take effect.

     

    The report outlines the reasons behind the request to the Council to intervene and considers the implications of the operation of these powers and also explains why the public interest and benefits of the scheme support this intervention and why the use of these powers is necessary and justified to enable the scheme to be implemented and brought forward.

     

    As an “in principle” decision it is reliant on specified conditions being met. It also seeks authority to take any subsequent detailed decisions in line with the Constitution and scheme of delegation, where acquisitions agreed in principle by Cabinet and approval of the disposal of any freehold or leasehold land and/or property are delegated to the Director of Development.

    The Hampstead Neighbourhood Plan 2025-2040 (SC/2025/24)

    Report of the Cabinet Member for Planning and a Sustainable Camden

     

    This report seeks the ‘making’ (that is, adoption) of the Hampstead Neighbourhood Plan 2025-2040, which updates, and would supersede, the current version of the Hampstead Neighbourhood Plan adopted by the Council in 2018. This follows an independent examination which found that the revised Plan, subject to further amendments, was in line with the statutory requirements.

     

    The Neighbourhood Plan relates to an area that includes the entirety of Hampstead Town ward, approximately one third of Frognal ward and some parts of Gospel Oak and Highgate wards. 

     

    The report is coming to the Cabinet because the Council’s Constitution requires all of the Council’s development plan documents (which includes Neighbourhood Plans) to be agreed by Cabinet, recommending them to full Council for approval where appropriate. The Local Government Act 2000 requires local plan documents to be adopted by full Council.

    Re-Procurement of the Pan-London Sexual Health e-Service (AH/2025/06)

    Report of the Cabinet Member for Health, Wellbeing and Adult Social Care  

     

    This report seeks the approval to enter into an inter-agency agreement with the City of London Corporation (CoL) for the re-commissioning and delivery of the Pan-London Sexual Health E-Service. CoL will lead on behalf of Camden Council and 31 other London boroughs.

     

    The Sexual Health E-Service provides at home asymptomatic sexually transmitted infection (STI) testing kits and contraception to residents as an alternative to attending in-person clinics.

     

    Camden Council are part of the existing arrangement in which Preventx Limited have been the service provider since 2017. The service performs well against key performance indicators and has remained responsive in adapting the service offer to meet the needs of residents. For example scaling up their online offer during the covid-19 pandemic and developing and delivering additional services such as an online contraception. Performance of the contract is monitored by London Sexual Health Programme's E-Service Management Board, in which Camden are active members.

     

    The report is being submitted to Cabinet for approval as required by Contract Standing Order C4.

    Nursing Block Contract: Ash Court Care Centre (AH/2025/05)

     

    Report of the Cabinet Member for Health, Wellbeing and Adult Social Care

     

    This report sets out the procurement approach and seeks approval for direct award of a 6-year contract to Forest Healthcare for the provision of nursing block beds at Ash Court under the Provider Selection Regime (PSR) Route C. The strategy outlined will safeguard the Council’s access to high-quality, affordable nursing provision in-borough, now and into the future.

     

    The ambition is for Camden residents to be placed through Nursing Block Contracts wherever possible, which are underpinned by strong partnership arrangements with providers and built on collaborative quality assurance relationships. Forest Healthcare, which operates Ash Court, has consistently demonstrated their commitment to Camden values and strives for a strengths-based, resident-led care community.

     

    The current Nursing Block contract commenced on 23rd July 2018 for an initial four-year period with three one-year extension options which were taken up in recognition of the high-quality care and support offer for Camden residents and joint working embraced by the provider.

     

    The Provider Selection Regime (PSR) allows a relevant authority to award a new contract to an existing provider “when the existing contract is due to expire, where the existing provider is satisfying the existing contract and is likely to satisfy the new contract.” Regulations stipulate that the proposed contracting arrangements must not be changing “considerably” from the existing contract.

     

    A three-stage assessment process has been completed under PSR, along with a review of the service specification to ensure that expectations of nursing care remain fit for purpose and reflect Adult Social Care priorities, including trauma-informed practice and the zero tolerance of abuse policy.

     

    The report is being submitted to Cabinet for approval as required by Contract Standing Orders for contracts with an estimated value of over £5 million.

     

     

     

    Part II: Exempt from Publication

     

    This report has an appendix which contains information exempt within the meaning of Schedule 12A to the Local Government Act 1972 and is not for publication. The appendix has therefore been circulated to Cabinet Members only.

     

    If the Cabinet wishes to discuss the contents of a closed exempt appendix it may pass the proposed resolution identified at the end of the document to exclude members of the public and the press from the proceedings for that discussion.

    Domestic Gas Boiler Supply Procurement Strategy (SC/2025/28)

    Report of the Cabinet Member for Better Homes 

     

    This report sets out a proposed procurement of a materials supplier of Individual Domestic Heating Systems (IDHS).  The systems that are procured will be installed by the in-house service, as approved by Cabinet February 2025.

     

    The Council as landlord has statutory obligations to service, maintain and replace mechanical and electrical equipment associated with the properties it owns which includes domestic heating systems. Heating and gas safety is an important area of compliance for the Council to manage, and performance is reported as part of our regular and constructive dialogue with the Regulator of Social Housing.

     

    The current outsourced contract comes to a natural end 31 March 2026 and in February 2025 Cabinet approved the in-source of the service from April 2026.  The current provider of the outsourced contract provides appropriate IDHS as needed. 

     

    From April 2026, the Council itself will be responsible for sourcing IDHS such as boilers and heat pumps, and associated materials, this requiring a strategic approach to procurement so that the Council can secure discounts and beneficial warranty periods.

     

    The report is coming to Cabinet because the proposed contract between a supplier of IDHS is fifteen years with a total estimated value of £22.15m. The contract is for the provision of materials and the installation will be carried out by the in-house team. The contract will be non-exclusive, meaning that the Council can move to other arrangements should market conditions or delivery arrangements change. 

     

    The recommended approach proposed in this report will be to appoint a long-term supplier of IDHS and associated installation materials by conducting a mini-competition between suppliers that are already registered on an established, national framework.  This will enable the Council to maximise value for money, secure high quality products with long warranty periods, and access suppliers who can provide both high performing boilers and renewable energy solutions such as heat pumps.
