The procurement contact named on the official notice.

Mid and South Essex NHS Foundation Trust ("MSE") intends to enter into a series of leasing arrangements with Noviniti Dev Co 8 Ltd ("Noviniti") and WHSmith ("WHS") in respect of a retail development ("the Development") at Basildon Hospital, Essex ("the Hospital") with WHS as Noviniti's initial tenant and retail operator.

MSE has structured the contractual arrangement as a land transaction exempt from the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (PCR) and the Concession Contracts Regulations 2015 (CCR).

Noviniti has an option to draw down a 35-year ground lease ("GL") of the site in exercise of an option agreement ("OA") with MSE.

The GL has break clauses in favour of MSE after 2 years (so MSE can recover the site if the Development is not commenced) and 30 years from practical completion of the Development.
