Covid19 Pandemic Impact on the Capital Programme - RES/20/134
29/09/2020 - Covid19 Pandemic Impact on the Capital Programme - RES/20/134
The Committee resolved:-
(i) to note in general terms the reasoning why individual project delay and additional costs are expected, across the delivery of capital projects in terms of their full project life cycle;
(ii) to note that officers continued to work with contractors on the financial implications of the programme delay and implications for future works, as a result of the COVID-19 virus requiring changing work practices across the full programme of projects;
(iii) to note the implications of what this means for future consideration within project Outline Business Cases of any new projects;
(iv) to note the actions which Officers are carrying out to mitigate the expected impacts; and
(v) to instruct the Chief Officer Capital to report any significant progress, in regard to the above, for each Capital Project reported to the Capital Programme Committee.
