Description

The Saltash Town Team is seeking the services of qualified and experienced landscape design/public realm consultancy to determine the optimal location(s) and feasibility of developing a green multi-use community space in the retail heart of the town centre.

Tenders are sought from companies with expertise and an excellent track record in designing public realm schemes in other towns, undertaking meaningful community consultation processes, providing creative and innovative solutions with clear costs and project timetables and where the final scheme has led to positive environmental, social and economic impacts.

It is expected that the consultants will carry out an assessment of possible sites, interrogate data on a range of factors including location, size, land ownership, accessibility, viability and synergy with the town's retail centre taking the project to RIBA stage 2 with conceptual designs and a feasibility study being the outcome to this project. Community consultation is an imperative part of the work.

This work will be overseen by the Saltash Town Team who provide the coordination of development activity within Saltash with the remit of helping to improve the economic, social and environmental revitalisation of the town - making Saltash a better place to live, work, visit and enjoy.

The accountable body for the project will be Saltash Town Council who are active members of the Town Team through Councillor and officer representation. A sub-group will steer this project led by the Chairman.

The commissioning of this work presents an exciting and high-profile opportunity for the appointed company to be involved in a game changing project in Saltash which is not only bespoke to the needs of the town's community, providing a much needed amenity but also builds on the town's profile as the gateway to Cornwall. It is also intended that the project echoes the rich heritage of Saltash.

This work has been funded through a successful Vitality Funding award from Cornwall Council's Town Centre Revitalisation Fund enabling Saltash to advance this project with the aim of improving the economic, social and environmental revitalisation of the town.

Literature review on the balance between publicly-listed and privately-held companies

The Financial Reporting Council (FRC) regulates auditors, accountants and actuaries and sets the UK's Corporate Governance and Stewardship Codes. As the Competent Authority for audit in the UK, we set auditing and ethical standards and monitor and enforce audit quality. The purpose of the FRC is to serve the public interest and support UK economic growth by upholding high standards of corporate governance, corporate reporting, audit and actuarial work. The FRC is seeking a Literature review on the balance between publicly-listed and privately-held companies The number of UK publicly-listed companies (PLCs) has fallen over the past decade. At the same time more companies are choosing to remain unlisted and financing their growth through private capital . The UK has become Europe's largest private-equity hub, and its leading venture capital market , both of which are funding privately held (non-listed) companies (PHCs). As part of its ongoing market monitoring activities, the FRC is seeking research services to deliver a review of the leading expert literature to understand the scale, trajectory and international context of these changes. As well as potential implications which might arise. This will include peer-reviewed academic research, as well as studies carried out with suitable rigour by professional bodies, industry organisations, and think tanks (grey literature). The review should draw on literature from a range of relevant disciplines including, but not limited to: law, economics, political economy, business, public administration. It should be written to inform non-academic readers about the following: • The leading analyses of evidence on theses changes, including: o The scale, trajectory, and other relevant characteristics. o Views on what might happen next. o The international context from relevant jurisdiction(s). o The causes/drivers of the change and whether they are evolving over time, including evidence on how and why commercial entities choose between different potential sources of funding. • Whether the literature provides any information relevant to understanding any potential impact on: o Our regulation, in particular the effect of shifts in sources of capital when combined with the existing policy landscape and legislative definitions which drive audit and corporate reporting requirements. o Any additional, relevant policy implications for us to consider. The review should be focused on the UK but may also draw on literature that brings insights from other jurisdictions, where clearly relevant. The markets in-scope for this research will include: • London Stock Exchange (LSE) Main Market • LSE Alternative Investment Market (AIM) • Relevant markets of the Aquis exchange • UK private-equity, venture capital, and private-credit markets We may also include other UK debt and equity markets. This will be discussed with the successful research contractor once appointed. Suggested approach Methodology • Search strategy: databases (e.g. JSTOR, SSRN, Web of Science, Scopus), policy portals, news archives. • Literature: o Inclusion/exclusion criteria should include, but not be limited to: relevance to UK context, credibility/quality/reliability, publication date, citations (or equivalent). o Biases and perspectives to be identified, where present, but not by themselves to be critria for exclusion. • Analytical approach: thematic coding, comparative case analyses, cross-discipliniary comparison (gaps and/or contradictions), synthesis of findings. PLEASE REFER TO THE INVITATION TO TENDER FOR FULL DETAILS.
