What is being bought

Section 41A of the Medical Act 1983 (as amended) provides the power to impose an interim order of suspension or conditions on a practitioner’s registration where such an order is necessary for the protection of members of the public or is otherwise in the public interest, or is in the interests of the practitioner. The interim order, for an initial period of up to 18 months, may be imposed by an Interim Orders’ Tribunal (IOT) or a Medical Practitioners Tribunal (MPT) of the Medical Practitioners Tribunal Service (MPTS). At the end of the initial period, the interim order may be extended by the High Court, on application by the GMC. Any extension of an interim order is for a maximum of 12 months, although there is no limit on the number of extensions that may be sought. The legislation requires that once an interim order has been imposed, it is reviewed at regular intervals (every 6 months or 3 months depending on the order), both before and after any extension authorised by the High Court.

At the end of the initial period, the interim order may be extended by the High Court, on application by the GMC. Any extension of an interim order is for a maximum of 12 months, although there is no limit on the number of extensions that may be sought. The legislation requires that once an interim order has been imposed, it is reviewed at regular intervals (every 6 months or 3 months depending on the order), both before and after any extension authorised by the High Court. This Tender relates to the provision of all advocacy before the Interim Orders Tribunal. For the avoidance of doubt, this Tender does not include advocacy services in relation to applications for extension orders in the High Court or for defending challenges issued in the High Court under the provisions of s.41A(10) of the Medical Act 1983 against Interim Orders.

Comparable-procurement analytics

Benchmarked against retained Find a Tender procedures with CPV division 79. The category anchor is Legal advisory and representation services (79110000); this is a deliberately broad market comparator. The comparison is shown at several levels rather than pretending one company or region is always the best benchmark.

Comparison setProceduresReported bids per procedureNamed award suppliersPrice evidence
Market: CPV division 7913,7424 median · 30.9 average (5,804 of 13,742 with a bid count)3.2 average (6,510 of 13,742 with named award suppliers)1 comparable price pairs

“Reported bids” is an official aggregate, sometimes reported per lot; it is the closest available competition measure. “Named award suppliers” are winners, not all applicants.

Price-outcome signal

Not enough comparable procedures currently publish both a GBP tender value and a usable lowest-valid-bid value to calculate a responsible price-reduction benchmark. Tenderline deliberately does not infer a saving from named award suppliers or from missing award values.

At the end of the initial period, the interim order may be extended by the High Court, on application by the GMC. Any extension of an interim order is for a maximum of 12 months, although there is no limit on the number of extensions that may be sought.\nThe legislation requires that once an interim order has been imposed, it is reviewed at regular intervals (every 6 months or 3 months depending on the order), both before and after any extension authorised by the High Court.\nThis Tender relates to the provision of all advocacy before the Interim Orders Tribunal. For the avoidance of doubt, this Tender does not include advocacy services in relation to applications for extension orders in the High Court or for defending challenges issued in the High Court under the provisions of s.41A(10) of the Medical Act 1983 against Interim Orders.",
