379.

A reviewer in this case has been appointed and is progressing their work. Whilst the indicative timeframe for the report was three months there is scope in the terms of reference for the reviewer to exceed this, as required, and to report to me at the earliest possible opportunity. As there have been some delays in the process due to COVID it is expected that the report will not be made within the indicative three months.
