The Panel was kicked off through funding awarded by the WMCA investment programme, but the plan was always to bring in additional funding to discuss particular topics as and when appropriate. The WMCA is currently developing its climate adaptation work, and the University of Birmingham was able to secure funding through the Natural Environment Research Council to support the Panel to do some citizen engagement on the plans. WMCA needed the modification as result of receiving the unforeseen additional funding; the modification does not alter the overall nature of the original contract and the additional funding of PS54,000 does not exceed 50% of the value of the original contract value of PS149,610 (PCR Reg 72(1)(c))."
