Description

To appoint an external consultant or supplier that has in-depth knowledge of the role and work of the Aggregate Working Parties and can mobilise resources quickly to undertake the secretariat function effectively. Aggregate Working Parties (AWPs) are technical advisory groups of mineral planning authorities and other relevant organisations covering specific geographical areas who work together to produce fit-for-purpose and comprehensive data on aggregate demand and supply in their area; and provide advice to individual mineral planning authorities and to the National Aggregate Co-ordinating Group. Their role is: • to consider, scrutinize and provide advice on the Local Aggregate Assessment of each mineral planning authority in its area; • to provide an assessment on the position of overall demand and supply for the AWP area, including whether, in its view, the area is making a full contribution towards meeting both national and local aggregate needs; • to provide an indication of emerging trends of demand in the AWP Area; • to obtain, collect and report on data on minerals activity in their area. This includes annual data on sales, permissions and mineral reserves in their area, and data on recycled and secondary sources. For this system to work and to produce the objectives stated above, it needs to be underpinned by robust and technically competent secretariat support, which is funded by the Government. Full details can be found in the PME document that can be requested via email.
