Can the CxA in a project over 50000 ft^2 be someone from the MEPFP design team?

Kind of...I need to talk to Tristan about clarifying the above FAQ a little, as the big issue related to the Design Firm doing Cx between over 50k is responsible design on the team.
Under 50k, an employee with design responsibilities (and required experience of course) can do the Fundamental Cx. Over 50k, an employee of the architect or engineer can do the Fundamental Cx, but must be "disinterested"
Coincidentally, KJWW just had this come up on a project, and we were asked to document that the person we had doing the Cx was indeed disinterested, i.e. had no design role. It was easy for us to show this because of our separate commissioning team, but that was the first time I can remember even being asked.
