An external board has been established to resolve any disputes that may arise in the assessment of applications for the Clean Industry Bonus (CIB) in Allocation Round 7 (AR7).
The purpose of the dispute resolution board is to allow CIB applicants an opportunity to challenge any perceived mistakes DESNZ could make in the scoring process.
A dispute may be raised on the basis of a potential error, or disagreement on the interpretation of the evidence provided by an applicant.
If an applicant is dissatisfied with DESNZ’s initial review of a perceived mistake, they can request that the board be convened.
The dispute resolution board has been established to ensure a fair and transparent process for the allocation of CIBs.
The board consists of the following members:
- Andrew Jamieson
- Thibaut Cheret
- Phillip Thies
- Henry Jeffrey
- David Hÿtch
- Roger Townsend
Board members will:
- only be appointed on the dispute resolution board for two CIB allocation rounds
- only have access to the data shared by applicants for review. All other information will be withheld or redacted to maintain compliance with data security
