The procurement falls under the government services category and is located in West Midlands and London. The tender period is currently active and will close on 19 December 2016. Successful candidates will meet six-weekly to assess applications and provide recommendations to government officials. The total value of this contract is £18,000, with a contract period spanning from 6 February 2017 to 5 February 2022. This opportunity presents potential for individuals from a diverse range of backgrounds who have the relevant expertise to contribute meaningfully to the panel. Businesses that specialise in property valuation, legal advisory, or community advocacy would find this tender especially appealing. Given that the position is open to individuals, it is ideal for consultants and independent professionals looking to leverage their expertise in public service and contribute to an impactful national project while earning a stipend for their services. ## Notice Panel for consideration of Discretionary Property Purchase scheme applications. HS2 is seeking to appoint 24 independent panel members. Due to the exceptional nature of the HS2 project, the Government believes that it should go further than required by law to assist affected property owners living in proximity to the proposed route of HS2. As such, HS2 Ltd has implemented a package of discretionary schemes to work alongside the Compensation Code. The Government will be appointing a small number of individuals from a wide range of backgrounds to a panel to assess applications for assistance from people living near the proposed route of HS2. This is an important role and independent panel members will make recommendations to senior officials and Ministers who are responsible for the final decision. Cases being reviewed will come from property owners who can show that they have a compelling reason to sell their property, but are unable to do so because of HS2. Panel members would typically attend for a whole day (currently at a location in central London) and also review their recommendations once written up, approximately once every six weeks. A stipend will be paid per panel meeting, plus reasonable travel costs. Panel members would be contracted in the manner of an independent supplier and would be responsible for paying tax on their fee. THIS OPPORTUNITY IS OPEN TO INDIVIDUALS ONLY. ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8805af5d-09c2-4b7a-b3b4-52018d4f9c78 | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Open | | Procurement method details | Open procedure | | Tender suitability | Not specified | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 25 Nov 2016 | | Submission deadline | 19 Dec 2016 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 6 Feb 2017 - 5 Feb 2022 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | £18,000 | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | HS2 | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | South West London | | Postcode | SW1E 5DU | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI35 Westminster and City of London | | Local authority | Westminster | | Electoral ward | St James's | | Westminster constituency | Cities of London and Westminster | | Delivery location | TLG West Midlands (England), TLI London | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 75 - Administration, defence and social security services ### Codes - 75131000 - Government services ## Release History - 25 Nov 2016 at 14:43 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8805af5d-09c2-4b7a-b3b4-52018d4f9c78 ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/8805af5d-09c2-4b7a-b3b4-52018d4f9c78 25th November 2016 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://hs2.bravosolution.co.uk Link to eSourcing Portal ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
