The modification extends the term of Lot 1 Managed Collection Services by twelve months. The end date changes from 13 December 2025 to 13 December 2026. No earlier modifications are relevant to this change. The reason for the modification is - Need for modification brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority/entity could not foresee (Art. 43(1)(c) of Directive 2014/23/EU, Art. 72(1)(c) of Directive 2014/24/EU, Art. 89(1)(c) of Directive 2014/25/EU) he modification is required due to urgent and unforeseen circumstances that have affected the Authority's ability to conclude necessary arrangements within the original contract term. These circumstances could not reasonably have been anticipated at the time the framework was established.
