About this tender

The Eljamel Inquiry is a Scottish public inquiry set up under the Inquiries Act 2005. It relates to the professional practice of Mr Eljamel, a consultant neurosurgeon at NHS Tayside's Ninewells Hospital in Dundee between 1995 and 2014. The Inquiry requires trauma-informed support for individuals involved in the public inquiry recognising that for some individuals the process of participating in the Inquiry could cause distress.

    Provision will primarily be based around the Inquiry's public hearings which will be attended by both Inquiry participants and members of the public. This will include support for witnesses to the Inquiry as they prepare their evidence and in the case of individuals giving oral evidence in the aftermath of giving their evidence. As such requirements for the support service will vary over the length of the contract..

    Due to the issues covered by the Inquiry, organisations with significant links to NHS Tayside, Circle Healthcare or other core participants (including Scottish Government), will be deemed as having a conflict of interest and would not be suitable applicants.
