Details

This statutory instrument (SI) revokes 4 items of assimilated law in their entirety, those being:

• 3 European Commission Decisions (the ‘EC decisions’) related to the public procurement of utilities
• a Commission Implementing Regulation, which established a standard form for companies participating in a procurement procedure

The SI also partially revokes one item of assimilated law: a set of regulations, which made consequential amendments, repeals and revocations required following the implementation of 3 key statutory instruments that govern the current procurement regime. These statutory instruments were:

• the Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (PCR 2015)
• the Utilities Contracts Regulations 2016 (UCR 2016)
• the Concession Contracts Regulations 2016 (CCR 2016)

The 5 items of legislation being revoked or partially revoked through this SI are redundant from 24 February 2025, with the Procurement Act 2023 (PA 2023) in force and the implementation of a new procurement regime in England, Wales and Northern Ireland.
