Introduction

Thank you for taking part in the Infralink survey.

There are 12 questions to answer that should take you only a few minutes to complete.

Thank you.

Question Title

* 1. Infralink’s approach is to offer a range of lease rights tailored to meet the requirements of most situations likely to be encountered across Scotland. For host property with any combination of high value / significant appearance / sensitive use, Infralink advocates more landlord control over network operations.

In general, Buildings will have higher value and more associated risk than Land. Similarly, Urban locations will feature higher values & associated risks than Rural locations. While exceptions may apply, standardisation and a systemised approach will bring wider benefits. Consequently, Infralink advocates the greatest degree of landlord control in an Urban Building setting and the least amount of landlord control in a Rural Land setting.

In relation to urban/building, do you think that the Infralink leases offer the correct amount of control a landlord might reasonably need in these varying situations?

Question Title

* 2. In relation to urban/land, do you think that the Infralink leases offer the correct amount of control a landlord might reasonably need in these varying situations?

Question Title

* 3. In relation to rural/building, do you think that the Infralink leases offer the correct amount of control a landlord might reasonably need in these varying situations?

Question Title

* 4. In relation to rural/land, do you think that the Infralink leases offer the correct amount of control a landlord might reasonably need in these varying situations?

Question Title

* 5. Infralink has identified key areas of the lease believed to have most impact on maintaining balance between promoting connectivity and protecting landlord’s interest and varied these according to the location and type of asset.

Please rank the level of importance of these areas based upon the interest you have/represent Rank 1-5 (1 most important, 5 least important).

Question Title

* 6. The Infralink Payment Guidance follows case law in terms of using a 3-stage process for determining the financial sum. While there has been some case law that addresses Stage 1 (Asset no-network value), the appropriate values for Stages 2 (Tenant Benefit) and 3 (Landlord Burden) are still not as clear.

How suitable do you think the Stage 2 level is in the Infralink Payment Guidance in relation to TENANT BENEFIT?

Question Title

* 7. The Infralink Payment Guidance follows case law in terms of using a 3-stage process for determining the financial sum. While there has been some case law that addresses Stage 1 (Asset no-network value), the appropriate values for Stages 2 (Tenant Benefit) and 3 (Landlord Burden) are still not as clear.

How suitable do you think the Stage 3 level is in the Infralink Payment Guidance in relation to LANDLORD BURDEN?

Question Title
