The standstill period requirements, including for the reviewing of decisions, are detailed in Regulations 12 and 14(3). Provision for independent expert advice is set out in Regulation 23.
Providers may make a representation to the relevant authority within the first eight working days following the start of the standstill period (ie eight working days starting with the first working day following the day after the intention to award notice has been published). Providers cannot submit a representation after that period, even if the standstill period has been extended in response to a representation from another provider.
Relevant authorities are only obliged to respond to representations that meet all the following conditions:
the representation comes from a provider that might otherwise have been a provider of the services to which the contract relates
the provider is aggrieved by the decision of the relevant authority
the provider believes that the relevant authority has failed to apply the regime correctly and is able to set out reasonable grounds to support its belief
the representation is submitted in writing (which includes electronically) to the relevant authority within eight working days of the start of the standstill period.
If a provider remains unsatisfied about the response given by a relevant authority to their representations, then that provider may seek the involvement of the Independent Patient Choice and Procurement Panel.
If a provider wishes to request the panel to consider their representation further, then they must submit their request through the panel’s website (find address below) within five working days of receiving the relevant authority’s decision following the relevant authority’s review of their representation.
