Consultation description
This is a consultation on the secondary legislation required to
implement the new public procurement regime established by the
Procurement Bill. This is a technical consultation, split into
two parts. This second part of the consultation focuses on
the transparency provisions and notices that will be used by
contracting authorities to fulfil their legal requirements under
the Bill. It also includes information on the proposed approach
to transitional arrangements for procurements already underway at
the time that the new regime enters into force and the position
on other legislation that will need to be amended in order for
the full provisions of the Bill to take effect. Questions largely
seek to understand to what extent the draft secondary legislation
provisions implement the policy intent as established in the
Bill.
