An approved GLAS advisor must carry out and complete your NMP. As far as I remember reading (somewhere) you cannot change advisor during the 5 years of the plan.
If you click on the link (about half way down) it gives the list of approved GLAS advisors in the country - If your advisor is not on the list then you should contact the Dept.

I think some of them knew well what was involved and were happy to charge for simple plans whether you got accepted or not

are consultants paid once a year for 5 years or is it just a once of payment.

you need to check with your planner but it should be a one off payment

i know people that paid 650 and that didn't include the NMP
