Resumen

These Regulations implement, for England and Wales and Northern Ireland, Directive 2014/25/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council on procurement by entities operating in the water, energy, transport and postal services sectors and repealing Directive 2004/17/EC. These Parts impose obligations on utilities in relation to how they award contracts for the execution of works, the supply of products or the provision of services. They set out some general rules and principles that apply to a procurement within the scope of the Regulations and detailed rules to be followed in relation to a procurement. Particular procurement regimes for the procurement of social and other specific services and the use of design contests: these regimes impose less detailed requirements and allow greater flexibilities. Certain requirements are imposed on utilities on utilities in relation to recording and reporting information. The Regulations also contain provisions about remedies (and their facilitation) in relation to a procurement. In the case of water, these Regulations apply to the following activities: (a) the provision or operation of fixed networks intended to provide a service to the public in connection with the production, transport or distribution of drinking water; (b) the supply of drinking water to such networks. They also may apply to contracts or design contests awarded or organised by utilities which pursue an activity referred to above and which are connected with one of the following— (a) hydraulic engineering projects, irrigation or land drainage, provided that the volume of water to be used for the supply of drinking water represents more than 20 percent of the total volume of water made available by such projects or irrigation or drainage installations; (b) the disposal of treatment sewage.
