Is subject to call in?: No

Decision:

To agree a Deed of Surrender of the Lease between Buckinghamshire Council (legacy AVDC) and NHSPS (formerly Buckinghamshire Primary Care Trust) for the former Berryfields Medical Centre located at Colonel Grantham Avenue, Buckingham Park, Aylesbury.

Reasons for the decision:

Buckinghamshire Council currently lease land at Colonel Grantham Avenue, Buckingham Park to NHSPS for use as a temporary Medical Centre. NHSPS have now found a permanent site for the Medical Centre at Berryfields, Aylesbury and therefore the site at Buckingham Park is no longer required for this use. The Council and NHSPS have agreed to complete a Deed of Surrender to bring the Lease to an end. The parties have agreed the required reinstatement works and these will be completed by NHSPS prior to the Deed of Surrender being completed.

Alternative options considered:

Not to agree a Deed of Surrender, however, given the circumstances this is not an option. As NHSPS have relocated the Medical Centre to Berryfields, they do not want to renew the Lease at this site.

Wards Affected: Wing;

Details of any conflict of interest declared: There are no known conflicts of interest.
