The nature, scope and effect of the VA is as set out in these documents, which any interested party is invited to read in full.
London Borough of Bromley considers that the VA does not give rise to the award of a new public contract or constitute an unlawful modification contrary to regs. 72 and 73 PCR 2015 because:
I. the modifications effected by the VA are not substantial within the meaning of reg. 72(8), PCR 2015; or
II. The modifications effected by the VA are permitted pursuant to reg. 72(1)(c), PCR 2015 because the need
for the modifications has been brought about by circumstances which a diligent contracting authority could not have foreseen. The relevant circumstances are, in summary, changes in market, economic and other conditions during the relevant period that have made performance of the DA more difficult and/or costly.
