After a tendering process conducted by my Department in 2012, Bonnar Keenlyside was awarded the contract referred to. The study is to encompass, inter alia, an assessment of the longitudinal impacts of the event. Such impact studies, by their nature, look at the impacts over time of events and the shorter end of such a span of analysis would focus on the 2-3 years post event.

I understand that the consultant is endeavouring to draw the study to a close and I expect to be in receipt thereof in the autumn. I will make a decision on publication of the study when I have considered its findings. I will directly furnish the Deputy with the terms of reference.
