- Please can you provide details about any planned engagement between Commercial Services and the Programme Team?

Please can you provide an overview of the Programme opportunities that have been listed on the Proactis online portal to date?
a. Please can you provide timescales for upcoming Programme projects that will be made available through the Proactis online portal?
The Panel would be grateful if you could provide confirmation of your position in relation to this matter as soon as possible, but by no later than Wednesday 31st July.
