Please provide a detailed statement which must include: a) details of the Community Benefits you will provide as part of this contract b) what resource (staff responsible) will you use to ensure successful delivery c) detailed commitment to the approach, including how you will monitor to track successful delivery of each of the Community Benefits you wish to deliver; and d) how you will update The Company on progress (SC Ref:808172)",
