Dear P T Ogorman,

 

Thank you for your e-mail.

 

Wirral Council can confirm that Beechwood Recreation Centre was the
subject of a competitive tender process for organisations to take a 5-year
Concession Contract to run a community-based leisure service. The
concession was let as a Concession Contract under the Public Procurement
Regulations 2016 (LN352/2016) / Concession Contract Regulations 2016
(LN353/2016)

 

The Concession Fee will be a proportion of the annual net profit before
tax of income generated from the operation at Beechwood recreation Centre.
The amounts will be as follows:

              Year 1 – 0%

              Year 2 – 5%

              Year 3 and subsequent years – 10%

 

The reason for this was that in March 2016 Council approved a budget
option for the Financial Year 2016/17 for Leisure Services to seek an
alternative provider for Beechwood Recreation Centre with associated
savings of £73,000 per annum.

 

I trust this clarifies matters for you.

 

Yours sincerely

Dear InfoMgr, FinDMT,
if this gym has been given to Tranmere rovers football club --will the public be allowed to use it ---if not it is not a public asset --to save 74000 pounds seems like a waste of our assets

Yours sincerely,

Dear P T O'Gorman

Please see our original response. The concession contract is to run a community-based leisure service and as such the community will be able to use the facility.
