VI.4) PROCEDURES FOR APPEAL
VI.4.2) Lodging of appeals: Precise information on deadline(s) for
lodging appeals: The Contracting Authority will incorporate a minimum 10
day standstill period (in the case of notices sent by electronic or
facsimile means) and a minimum 15 day standstill period after the date of
sending or minimum 10 days after the date of the last unsuccessful
tenderers receipt (where notices are not sent electronically) at the point
information on the award of the contract is communicated to tenderers.
This period allows unsuccessful tenderers to query the information
provided and/or decide whether or not they wish to challenge the award
decision before the contract is entered into. Queries should be directed
to the address in part I.1.
If an appeal regarding the award of the contract has not been successfully
resolved the Public Contracts Regulations 2006 (SI 2006 No. 5) as amended
by the Public Contracts (Amendment) Regulations 2009 (SI 2009 No. 2992)
provide for aggrieved parties who have been harmed or are at risk of harm
by a breach of the rules to take action in the High Court (England, Wales
and Northern Ireland.) Any such action which does not seek a declaration
of ineffectiveness must be brought promptly (and in any event within 3
months.) An application for ineffectiveness must be made within 30 days of
publication of a contract award notice or notification of the conclusion
of the contract with a summary of relevant reasons, or in any other case
within 6 months of the date the contract was entered into.
Where a contract has not been entered into the Court may order the setting
aside of the award decision or order the authority to amend any document
and may award damages. If the contract has been entered into the Court may
make a declaration of ineffectiveness and order payment of a civil
financial penalty. The purpose of the standstill period referred to above
is to allow parties to apply to the courts to set aside the award decision
before the contract is entered into. The commencement of proceedings
before the contract has been entered into requires the authority to
refrain from entering into the contract.
