period is 15 days) to elapse between the date of despatch of the notice referred to in Regulation 85(1) of the Public Contracts (Scotland)

Regulations 2015 ("The Regulations"). The Council is obliged to comply with the regulations and any eligible economic operator can bring

an action in the Sheriff Court or the Court of Session where as a consequence of a breach by the Council, suffers or risks suffering loss or

damage.

framework agreement or establish the dynamic purchasing system unless the proceedings are determined, discontinued or disposed of: or

the court, by interim order, brings to an end the prohibition. The bringing of court proceedings after the standstill period has elapsed and the

remedies that are available to the courts are detailed in the Regulations. Economic operators can write to the Council seeking further

clarification on the notice, to which the Council must respond within 15 days. Economic Operators should be mindful to seek their own

independent legal advice when they consider appropriate to do so.
