The assessment will support the plan through further consultation, submission to the Secretary of State and public examination. If necessary, the consultant may be required to attend the examination to support SDC in defending the findings of the assessment.

The Contract is anticipated to commence upon 2nd October 2017 and will continue for a period of 6 months (with any extensions) unless terminated in accordance with the Conditions of the Contract.
