- Description
- The UK Covid-19 Inquiry requires a Solicitor to the Inquiry and supporting legal team to provide continuous legal advice to the Inquiry Chair on the operation of the Inquiry. As referenced in the Voluntary Ex Ante Transparency Notice (published 14/05/26 with a 10-day standstill period), the contract was extended via a time-only extension within the existing total contract value. The extension ensures the delivery of significantly reduced deliverables as the Inquiry approaches closedown.
