Precise information on deadline(s) for review procedures
The Countess of Chester Hospital NHS Foundation Trust will observe a voluntary 10 calendar day standstill period following publication of the VEAT before the amendment to the estimated total value takes effect. No contracts called off from this framework and not yet concluded will be concluded before the end of this voluntary standstill period. For the avoidance of doubt, if no claim form is issued during the voluntary standstill period then the voluntary standstill period will end at midnight on 25th April 2024. In the event that a claim form is issued, the amendment and the conclusion of any contract called off from this framework and not yet concluded will be suspended until the claim is resolved.
