SPT requires a minimum notice period of 28 days to process each request. Please be aware that some projects may take a considerable amount of time to consider and assess and therefore it is advisable to submit requests as early as possible otherwise SPT may not be able to grant your request for the use SPT premises.

A Facility fee of £200 per hour plus additional costs, such as operational outlays, staffing costs and administrative costs shall be payable to SPT for use of SPT premises. Additional costs will be assessed by SPT on an individual basis. Use of SPT premises will be charged at a minimum of one hour irrespective of time requirements.

SPT requires the following information and documents prior to requests being approved:

1. Employers Liability Insurance cover to the value of at least Five Million Pounds (£5,000,000);

2. Public Liability Insurance cover to the value of at least Two Million Pounds (£2,000,000);

3. Health and Safety Risk Assessment(s);

4. Method Statements;

5. Any other documents that SPT deems necessary (which may include some Company Information).

Once a request has been approved, SPT will issue by e-mail a contract to the Requester, along with the Contractor's Safety Policy and Briefing Note. The contract will contain all relevant details provided by the Requester. The contract will detail all of SPT's terms and conditions for use of SPT premises, some of which have been outlined below under "CONDITIONS OF USE OF SPT PREMISES AFTER A REQUEST HAS BEEN GRANTED".

Before an Event is allowed to take place the Requester is required to have signed the issued contract and returned it to SPT, at least two working days prior to an Event taking place. Once SPT has received the contract within the said two working days then SPT shall return the contract to the Requester after it has been signed for and on behalf of SPT.

The Requester should note that once the contract is signed there is a legally binding agreement with SPT.

Please note that a contract issued by SPT for an Event can only be signed by a Director, Secretary, or person authorised to sign such contracts. Confirmation of such authority may be required from the Requester.

Where permission has been granted for a Requester to make use of SPT's premises then the Requester is deemed to have read, and be fully aware of SPT's Contractor's Safety Policy, abbreviated Operational Risk Assessment and Briefing note. These documents will be e-mailed to the Requester with the contracts.
