This timeline was taken off the National Lotteries Board website. There is not a great deal of time to submit a proposal. I reiterate what I wrote a few days ago – there is a strong emphasis on BEE related issues. Again I offer my services to a bidder to put together a compelling document. I've done a fair number of PPPs in the last few years and know how to go about putting together a proper submission. Email me and I'll happily discuss the document with you.
