Review and risk notes
Review procedure

Economic operators should approach the contracting authority in the first instance. However, the only formal remedy is to apply to the

courts:

An economic operator that suffers, or is at risk of suffering, loss, or damage attributable to a breach of duty under the Public Contracts

(Scotland) Regulations 2015 or the Procurement Reform (Scotland) Act 2014, may bring proceedings in the Sheriff Court or the Court of

Session.

The bringing of court proceedings against the Authority after the Framework Agreement has been entered into will not affect the

Framework Agreement unless grounds for the imposition of special penalties under the Public Contracts (Scotland) Regulations 2015 can

be established. Otherwise, the remedies that may be awarded by the courts where the Framework Agreement has been entered into are

limited to the award of damages.

Publisher note: The estimated value of the Framework Agreement referred to in Section V11.1.6 cover(s) the 48 month contract duration of the Framework Agreement. The estimated value in Section V.2.4 covers the additional 12 month extension period of the Framework Agreement. (SC Ref:761417)
