answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 03/12/2018 answer text <p>The Nominated Undertaker (i.e. those acting on behalf of the Secretary of State) will engage with property owners as it is in their combined interest that Settlement Surveys are reflective and factual of the property prior to commencement of tunnel works. The survey will be undertaken by a jointly appointed Independent Chartered Building Surveyor at the nominated undertaker’s cost. This approach was adopted on HS1, Crossrail and Thames Tideway and is a common and recognised practice. See Information Papers C3 &amp; C14 Section 7. The Nominated Undertaker will perform relevant conflict of interest assessments at the appropriate time.</p> answering member constituency Wealden answering member printed Ms Nusrat Ghani question first answered 03/12/2018 15:53:17 answering member 4460 label Biography information for Ms Nusrat Ghani
