Legal Justification
Regulation 8 of the 2016 Regulations provides that the 2016 Regulations apply to services concession contracts with an estimated value of 5,193,000 GBP (inclusive of VAT) (indicative value excluding 20% VAT – 4,327,500 GBP). The estimated value of the proposed contract that is the subject of this notice – which is a services concession contract – is below the threshold at which the 2016 Regulations apply and public procurement of the contract in terms of the 2016 Regulations is not therefore necessary.
Other Information
It should be noted that this VEAT notice is intended to inform the market of the intention to directly award a contract and, while the Public Contracts Scotland system requires an award date prior to the notice publication, for the avoidance of doubt it should be noted that the contract has not been entered into prior to the publication of this notice.
