The Remedies Directive: Upcoming changes to Public Procurement regulationBy Stefan Töpfer on May 14, 2009On 30th April the UK Government published draft legislation that proposed to bring the Remedies Directive into effect in England, Wales and Northern Ireland. This Directive will make significant changes to the remedies available to third parties when public procurement rules are breached. The main changes are:
These changes are important because they increase the chances of non-compliance with public procurement rules. Although there are currently very few claims of rule breach that go to court, the new regulations could lead to an increase in court actions due to opportunistic claimants. This is likely to be an unpopular change for many suppliers. The Remedies Directive must be implemented into law by 20 December 2009 and currently will only apply to new contracts made after that date. Information courtesy of LG Legal
