the Sheriff Court or the Court of Session. The City of Edinburgh Council (the Council) will have a minimum standstill period of 10 days
before awarding the contract. The communication of the award decision notice will be sent by fax or e-mail to all tenderers with the

the date when the grounds for the bringing of the proceedings first arose (2) be entitled to issue an ineffectiveness order or impose a
financial penalty on the Council. A claim for an ineffectiveness order must be made within 30 days of the Contract Award Notice being
published in the FTS or within 30 days of the date those who expressed an interest in or otherwise bid for the contract were informed of the
conclusion of the contract or in any other case within 6 months from the date on which the contract was entered int

This ensures payment of sub-contractors at all stages of the supply chain within 30 days and includes an obligation to provide a point of contact for sub-contractors to refer to in the case of payment difficulties. This will require active monitoring of payment performance as well as the provision of evidence and reports to the Council on request or as contractually scheduled. (SC Ref:732596)
