Appointment of Key Sub-Contractors The Authority and the Customer have consented to the engagement of the Key Sub-Contractors listed in DMP Schedule 7 (Key Sub-Contractors). Where the Supplier wishes to enter into a new Key Sub-Contract or replace a Key Sub-Contractor, it must obtain the prior written consent of the Authority and the Customer (the decision to consent or otherwise not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). The Authority and/or the Customer may reasonably withhold its consent to the appointment of a Key Sub-Contractor if any of them considers that: the appointment of a proposed Key Sub-Contractor may prejudice the provision of the Goods and/or Services or may be contrary to its interests; the proposed Key Sub-Contractor is unreliable and/or has not provided reliable goods and/or reasonable services to its other customers; and/or the proposed Key Sub-Contractor employs unfit persons. Except where the Authority and the Customer have given their prior written consent under Clause18.7, the Supplier shall ensure that each Key Sub-Contract shall include: provisions which will enable the Supplier to discharge its obligations under this Contract; a right under CRTPA for the Customer to enforce any provisions under the Key Sub-Contract which confer a benefit upon the Customer; a provision enabling the Customer to enforce the Key Sub-Contract as if it were the Supplier; a provision enabling the Supplier to assign, novate or otherwise transfer any of its rights and/or obligations under the Key Sub-Contract to the Customer or any Replacement Supplier; obligations no less onerous on the Key Sub-Contractor than those imposed on the Supplier under this Contract in respect of: data protection requirements set out in Clauses 23.1 (Security Requirements), 23.2 to 23.9 (Protection of Customer Data) and 23.25 to 23.39 (Data Protection ); FOIA requirements set out in Clause 23.23 to 23.24 (Freedom of Information); the keeping of records in respect of the Goods and/or Services being provided under the Key Sub-Contract, including the maintenance of Open Book Data; the conduct of audits set out in Clause 12 (Records, Audit Access & Open Book Data); provisions enabling the Supplier to terminate the Key Sub-Contract on notice on terms no more onerous on the Supplier than those imposed on the Customer under Clauses 30 (Customer Termination Rights), 32 (Termination by Either Party) and 34 (Consequences of Expiry or Termination) of this Contract; a provision restricting the ability of the Key Sub-Contractor to Sub-Contract all or any part of the provision of the Goods and/or Services provided to the Supplier under the Sub-Contract without first seeking the written consent of the Customer; a provision, where a provision in Contract Schedule 5 (Staff Transfer) imposes an obligation on the Supplier to provide an indemnity, undertaking or warranty, requiring the Key Sub-Contractor to provide such indemnity, undertaking or warranty to the Customer, Former Supplier or the Replacement Supplier as the case may be. The Supplier shall ensure that all Sub-Contracts contain a provision: requiring the Supplier to pay any undisputed sums which are due from it to the Sub-Contractor within a specified period not exceeding thirty (30) days from the receipt of a Valid Invoice; requiring that any invoices submitted by a Sub-Contractor shall be considered and verified by the Supplier in a timely fashion and that undue delay in doing so shall not be sufficient justification for failing to regard an invoice as valid and undisputed; requiring the Sub-Contractor to include in any Sub-Contract which it in turn awards suitable provisions to impose, as between the parties to that Sub-Contract, requirements to the same effect as those required by sub-clauses (a) and (b) directly above; and conferring a right to the Customer to publish the Suppliers compliance with its obligation to pay undisputed invoices within the specified payment period. The Supplier shall: pay undisputed sums which are due from it to a Sub-Contractor within thirty (30) days from the receipt of a Valid Invoice; Provide a summary of its compliance with this Clause 18.11a), such data to be certified each quarter by a director of the Supplier as being accurate and not misleading. Any invoices submitted by a Sub-Contractor to the Supplier shall be considered and verified by the Supplier in a timely fashion. Undue delay in doing so shall not be sufficient justification for the Supplier failing to regard an invoice as valid and undisputed. Notwithstanding any provision of Clauses 23.10 to 23.18 (Confidentiality) and 24 (Publicity and Branding) if the Supplier notifies the Customer that the Supplier has failed to pay an undisputed Sub-Contractor’s invoice within thirty (30) days of receipt, or the Customer otherwise discovers the same, the Customer shall be entitled to publish the details of the late or non-payment (including on government websites and in the press).
