Consultation Questions

Timescale and Process

1)Do you think these timescales are appropriate?
2)In particular, does it give potential pilot projects enough time to respond to Stage One (6 weeks) and to create a business plan in Stage Two (12 weeks)?
3)Do you think the proposed approach gives a rigorous, transparent and robust process for assessing pilot scheme applications? Are there ways it could be enhanced?
4)We are interested in exploring opportunities for external input to the decision-making process. Do you have suggestions for how to go about doing this?
5)Do you think this is an appropriate aim for the Pilot Scheme?
6)Do you think it is appropriate to measure the social, economic and environmental outcomes?
7)Do you think there are other appropriate measures that should be used?
8)Do you think the project review period is appropriate?
9)Do you think there are other assets which should be excluded from the Pilot Scheme?
Stage One Application Questions
10) Have we listed the correct types of organisations? Should any other types of organisation be included or should any of these organisations be excluded?
11) Have we given sufficient information to guide proposers? Are there any other items which you think should be included under this question?
12) Have we listed the correct questions for testing if the project will meet the statutory duty under the Crown Estate Act 1961 and other relevant legislation?
