Peter also has specialist expertise in structuring public sector involvement in land disposals, funding and/or development schemes so as to provide appropriate ‘solutions’ to accommodate and/or avoid (as appropriate) the various restrictions and obligations created by the public subsidy control (‘state aid’ as was), procurement, best consideration and funding regimes.
