six.4.3) Review procedure
Precise information on deadline(s) for review procedures
and candidates concerned of its decision to award the contract, conclude the framework agreement or establish a dynamic purchasing
system. The Council must allow a period of at least the relevant standstill period (where the notice is sent by facsimile or electronic means
the period is 10 days ending at midnight at the end of the 10th day after that on which the last notice is sent. When sent by other means the
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.
The bringing of court proceedings during the standstill period means that the council must not enter into the contract, conclude the
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.
