90 Capital Contributions: In exceptional circumstances, the Authority may wish to make a capital contribution of its own or have some other form of co-financing proposal. Such capital contributions should be kept to a modest size and scheduled to or towards the end of the Construction Period. See paragraph 3.9 of SOPC4.
91 Early Works Agreements in the ordinary course of events, for a well planned procurement exercise no agreements should be needed for the commencement of early works ahead of the parties signing the Contract since such agreements would generally be considered bad practice for a number of reasons. However, for certain projects where particular programming issues apply, basic enabling works may be needed prior to Contract signature, provided certain rules apply. See paragraph 3.10 of SOPC4.
