Responsibility for payment of the Independent Reviewer is typically shared equally between the State and Project Co.
The exception to this rule is where a party requests the Independent Reviewer to prepare a report not otherwise required by the Project Deed or the Independent Reviewer Deed of Appointment, in which case the party requesting the report is responsible for the relevant costs (clause 8.1(d) LIPD and 8.1(j) SIPD).
Payments to the Independent Reviewer must not include payment for or cross- subsidisation of any other roles (clause 8.2(d)).
