Recommendation (the committee's words)
Throughout all future competitive bidding processes, the Government must avoid introducing additional metrics for success once an application process has closed. If, for any reason, this becomes unavoidable, the DLUHC must communicate this change via official and public channels of communication before successful applicants are announced. Throughout any funding programme the Government must also ensure that they are able to adapt and respond to the possible impact of inflation through adequate financial support for successful projects.
