Local Government Property Scotland

During the acquisition process of local government property in scotland the amount of space required may change and any change should be notified immediately to all advisers to ensure that inappropriate property is not added to the estate. Negotiations by advisers should be on a provisional only basis so that even at a very late stage in negotiations it should be possible to withdraw or alter requirements although penalties may be incurred. Advice from Solicitors should be sought immediately. If it is anticipated that there will be changes in space requirements throughout the length of the occupation then this should be specified in an attempt to try and build in flexibility.
