Risk Details	The consultation and engagement requirements for Future Port Talbot may evolve as the application progresses. Additional consultation, stakeholder engagement or associated services may be required in response to emerging requirements, stakeholder or consenting authority feedback, or changes to the application that cannot reasonably be identified at the date of procurement. The contract may therefore require modification if this risk materialises.
