Introduction
The Remedies Directive is set to be implemented in the UK on the 20th December 2009. The Directive will increase the sanctions available for breaches of the public procurement rules. The new provisions introduce ‘ineffectiveness’ as a penalty for infringing the rules, a longer time limit for challenging decisions, and the strengthening of the ‘standstill’ obligations. Contractors need to be aware of how the new public procurement regime may put their contracts at risk. Furthermore, contractors need to understand how the new regulations impact upon their ability to challenge procurement decisions.
Chaired by Nigel Giffin QC, 11KBW, the leading authorities in procurement law will analyse the latest case law and legislative developments, and provide guidance on what this means in practice.
