34.7  Relief from Deductions

Where the Authority exercises its rights under clause 34 and it can be shown that:

(a)  the Service Provider or the FM Contractor or the Services Contractor has acted in accordance with the relevant provisions of this clause 34.7; or

(b)  the Authority did not act reasonably in instructing the Service Provider not to employ and/or in requesting any removal and/or in refusing admission,

then the Authority shall give the Service Provider such relief from deductions for a reasonable period to allow the Service Provider or any sub-contractor to make alternative arrangements to replace the person whose employment has been refused or whose removal has been requested.  For the avoidance of doubt, any relief from deductions given under this clause 34.7 shall only be in respect of those Services in which such person is or would have been engaged.
