13.3Can an ECEI Partner in the Community provide ECI services to a family who have chosen to self-manage their funding and who can therefore choose to purchase services from any Service Provider, including Non-Registered ones? If so, would the same individual notification process for Conflict of Interest apply?
The provision of disability services by an ECEI Partner to a family who has chosen to self-manage their funding would give rise to an actual, potential or apparent conflict of interest for the purposes of clause 34.1 or clause 34.5 of the draft Grant Agreement (as applicable). This conflict of interest would be managed on an on-going basis under clause 34.3 or clause 34.6 of the draft Grant Agreement (as applicable).
