Ethical Walls. The SFA makes two types of agreement available for organisations accessing and using the PLR: the Learning Provider Agreement – this agreement is for Learning Providers and allows them full access to the PLR; and the Awarding Organisation Agreement – this agreement is for Awarding Organisations and provides partial access to the PLR. However, a number of organisations act in a capacity of both Awarding Organisation and Learning Provider in respect of the use of the PLR. Therefore, the members of the Party to this Agreement operating as a Learning Provider must ensure they do not: discuss or provide any information gained from the PLR with any member of the Party operating as an Awarding Organisation; or disclose or make available to a member of the Party operating as an Awarding Organisation any information in relation to the PLR that is not in the public domain. The Learning Provider shall notify the SFA as soon as possible of any instance of non- compliance with this Agreement. Upon becoming aware of any such non-compliance, the Learning Provider shall, without prejudice to the SFA rights under this Agreement: carry out a review to ascertain the reasons for and extent of such non-compliance; take such steps as are necessary to minimise the risk of such non-compliance occurring again; and implement procedures for the immediate reporting to the SFA of any unexpected or unusual requests for access to or copies of documents. The Learner Provider shall at all times monitor and ensure strict enforcement by all relevant staff and personnel of its obligations in this Agreement and in particular shall: implement strict and carefully defined procedures for dealing with a situation where it is felt that the Ethical Walls have been crossed and maintain proper records of such an event; and monitor the effectiveness of the Ethical Walls and take all necessary steps where it is found that the Ethical Walls have not been effective.
Ethical Walls. 4.1 It is expected that organisations offering technical support to this programme through this tendering opportunity will not be participating in the main Social Enterprise Consortia Building Programme, except where there is a demonstrable ethical wall in place. For those Providers wishing to participate in both, there is a requirement for all relevant staff to sign declaration documents (provided by the Authority) that restrict their activity to one of either the Social Enterprise Consortia Building Programme or this Technical Support opportunity. The Provider will be required to evidence adherence to the designated roles via timesheets, diary entries, minutes of meetings and other documentation as appropriate. Where Providers are effectively single person operations, then participation in both is not permissible as there is no realistic scope to demonstrate that an ethical wall is being maintained.
