Review and risk notes
Review procedure

The contracting Authority will incorporate a minimum ten calendar day standstill period at the point of information on the award of the

Contract(s) to be awarded at conclusion of the procurement exercise begun by publication of the contract notice is communicated to

tenderers. The Public Contracts Regulations 2015 provides for aggrieved parties who have been harmed or at risk of harm by breach of

those regulations to take action in the High Court (England, Wales and Northern Ireland). Generally, any such action must be brought

within thirty days from the date the aggrieved party knew or ought to have known about the alleged breach. Where the contract(s) have not

been entered into the court may order the setting aside of the award decision or order the contracting authority to amend any document and

may award damages. If the contract(s) have been entered into the court may only award damages or where the award procedures have not

been followed correctly may in certain circumstances declare the contract to be ‘ineffective’.
