513/32

1. Population and Migration

The  Panel  received  a  draft  contract  for  the  engagement  of  Edge Analytics Limited as expert advisor for the Population and Migration Review.

The Panel recalled that a budget of £5,000 had been set for the engagement of an expert advisor and that a competitive tendering process had not been entered into on this occasion. In that regard, the Panel noted that a formal tendering process was not required under Financial Direction 5.1 where the task was time limited and there was insufficient time to go through a competition process and where the anticipated value of the engagement was less than £25,000. It was noted that both criteria applied in this case.

The Panel confirmed its decision to engage Edge Analytics Limited and approved the contract accordingly.
