On this basis there are derogations under the regulations to award a contract to a single supplier where the supplies or services can only be supplied by a particular supplier for the following reasons:-

i) Where competition is absent for technical reasons (regulation 32(2)(b)(ii); or

ii) For reasons connected with the protection of exclusive rights, including intellectual property rights (regulation 32(2)(b)(iii))
