Delivery Challenges in the Offshore Wind Sector: Discussion
2:00 am
Ms Tina Raleigh:
We would say that, yes, there are. As I said, we have amassed a team of people who have done this before. This is not their first rodeo. They have successfully delivered in other jurisdictions. They would be competent consultants and a competent team working on and producing these applications. There is much in the RFI that goes beyond industry best practice for requests. You will always aspect an RFI. There are aspects that people will have further queries on, which is to be expected, but it is the level that is requested that we feel goes above and beyond what is required. As I said, there were over 12,000 pages of assessments. It is a really good-quality, robust application. To see all those additional queries that really do not add to the assessment is the issue I have. They do not enhance what we have already produced.
