This will be supported by a 3-month review of progress and ongoing Business Gateway adviser support.\nWhere a requirement for additional expert advice of more than half a day on a topic covered by this framework is identified during the Intensive Growth Programme, a referral should be made via Business Gateway to  the appointed supplier on the framework for that topic.",
