Last two clues, but I'm being fussy to understand the parsing fully :-
1) Planned bid for contract halted (8) ?N?E?D?D It looks as if it has to be INTENDED i.e."planned", but why IN and, although TENDERED means to have made a bid, why does "halted" mean take out the ER in the middle?
2) Caravan finally turning up on private land (5) N?G?R

Thanks Captain 2. I should have thought of looking for earlier Qs & As but, with all the kerfuffle between Saturday and today over Christmas and guests arriving etc., I only got round to looking at the puzzle today.
