Friday, 4th June, 2010: The Authority is inviting expressions of interest for the purpose of facilitating selection of its principal provider of legal and ancillary services for a three year period. The Authority also engages the services of other such service providers from time to time (e.g., in instances where potential conflicts of interest arise). This exercise will also be used for the purpose of facilitating the establishment of a Panel of reserve service providers. For the avoidance of doubt, the Panel referred to above is separate and distinct from the Panel of legal professionals advertised in February last in the context of the Authority’s supervisory mandate vis-à-vis the Prescribed Accountancy Bodies.
Further information was provided in the detailed Invitation document, which can be downloaded here. The closing date for receipt of expressions of interest has now passed.
