NCL Local Authorities also have the option to commission individual packages of care from this framework list if they choose. NCL Local Authorities will follow their own local procedures for the issuing of contracts related to individual packages of care NCL ICB PBS provider framework will be for the commissioning of PBS packages of care for clients with a learning disability and behaviours of concern.
