The Procurement Act 2023 (Consequential and Other Amendments) Regulations 2025

(20A) (1) A relevant authority must as part of a procurement process under these Regulations— (a) request information about whether a provider intends to sub-contract the performance of all or part of the contract, and (b) seek to determine whether any intended sub-contractor is on the debarment list. (2) A relevant authority may, as part of a procurement process under these Regulations, request information for the purpose of determining whether any intended sub-contractor is an excluded or excludable provider. (3) Subject to paragraph (4), if after requesting information under paragraph (1) or (2) a relevant authority considers that a provider intends to sub-contract to a provider that is an excluded provider, the relevant authority must exclude the provider from the procurement process. (4) A relevant authority may award a contract to a provider that would otherwise be excluded from the procurement process under paragraph (3) if the relevant authority considers that there are overriding reasons relating to the public interest, including public health. (5) If, after requesting information under paragraph (1) or (2), a relevant authority considers that a provider intends to sub-contract to a provider that is an excludable provider, the relevant authority may exclude the provider from the procurement process. (6) Before excluding a provider under paragraph (3) or (5), a relevant authority must— (a) notify the provider of its intention, and (b) give the provider reasonable opportunity to find an alternative provider with which to sub-contract. (20B) (1) Paragraph (2) applies if the relevant authority intends to exclude a provider under regulation 20 or 20A because it considers the provider, or an intended sub-contractor, is an excludable provider on the basis of the discretionary exclusion ground in paragraph 14 of Schedule 7 (threat to national security) to the Procurement Act 2023. (2) The relevant authority may not exclude the provider or notify the provider of its intention unless— (a) the authority has notified a Minister of the Crown of its intention, and (b) the Minister of the Crown considers that— (i) the provider or an intended sub-contractor is an excludable supplier by reference to paragraph 14 of Schedule 7, and (ii) the provider should be excluded. (3) The reference in paragraph (2) to a relevant authority notifying a provider of its intention is a reference to notification in accordance with regulation 20A(6)(a). (20C) (1) This regulation applies where— (a) a relevant authority— (i) has excluded an excluded or excludable provider from a procurement process under regulation 20 or 20A, or (ii) is aware of a sub-contractor having been replaced under regulation 20A, and (b) the provider, or an intended sub-contractor, was an excluded or excludable provider because they would have been an excluded or excludable supplier— (i) under section 57(1)(a) or (2)(a) of the Procurement Act 2023 by virtue of a relevant exclusion ground, or (ii) on the basis of being on the debarment list by virtue of paragraph 35 of Schedule 6 (national security) of the Procurement Act 2023. (2) The relevant authority must, before the end of the period of 30 days beginning with the date on which the provider was excluded or replaced, give notice of that fact to a Minister of the Crown. (3) A notice under paragraph (2) must set out any relevant exclusion ground that the authority considers applies to the provider. (4) If the relevant authority receives representations in accordance with regulation 12(3), or is aware of any review proceedings, in respect of the exclusion or replacement, it must give notice to the Minister of the Crown of— (a) the receipt of those representations or commencement of those proceedings or any appeal proceedings; (b) the outcome of the regulation 12 process or of any proceedings within sub-paragraph (2). (5) Notice under— (a) paragraph (4)(a) must be given before the end of the period of 30 days beginning with the day the representations concerned are made or the proceedings concerned are commenced; (b) paragraph (4)(b) must be given before the end of the period of 30 days beginning with the day the regulation 12 process is concluded or the proceedings concerned are determined. (6) In this regulation— - “exclusion ground” means a mandatory exclusion ground as set out in Schedule 6 to the Procurement Act 2023, or a discretionary exclusion ground as set out in Schedule 7 to the Procurement Act 2023; - “relevant exclusion ground” means any exclusion ground except the one listed in paragraph 43 of Schedule 6 (failure to cooperate with investigation) to the Procurement Act 2023. (20D) (1) A Minister of the Crown may carry out an investigation under section 60 of the Procurement Act 2023 for the purpose of considering whether an entry could be added to the debarment list in respect of a provider, but as if references to— (a) “supplier” were to “provider”; (b) “excluded supplier” were to “excluded supplier” as defined in regulation 2 of these Regulations; (c) “excludable supplier” were to “excludable supplier” as defined in regulation 2 of these Regulations; (d) “contracting authority” were to “relevant authority”.

Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

Explanatory Note

These Regulations make substantive amendments to the Procurement Act 2023 (c. 54) (“PA 2023”) and the Procurement Regulations 2024 (S.I. 2024/692) (“PR 2024”), as well as consequential amendments arising from the coming into force of the PA 2023.

Chapter 1 of Part 2 contains amendments to the PA 2023. Regulation 3(2) makes updates to the threshold amounts set out in Schedule 1 to that Act. Those thresholds determine the value above which contracts of different types fall to be regulated by the substantive regime. The threshold amounts amended here are set under the World Trade Organisation Agreement on Government Procurement. The PA 2023 was enacted with the threshold amounts applicable at the time; these were updated in January 2024 and regulation 3(2) ensures that the threshold amounts will be appropriately updated ahead of the PA 2023 coming into force.

Regulation 3(3) amends Schedule 9 to the PA 2023 in order to reflect additions and amendments to the UK’s international obligations in respect of procurement.

Chapter 2 of Part 2 contains consequential amendments to primary legislation rendered necessary by the coming into force of the PA 2023.

Chapter 1 of Part 3 contains amendments to the PR 2024. These amendments are being made to coincide with the coming into force of those Regulations and address a small number of matters for which provision was not made in those Regulations.

Chapter 2 of Part 3 and Part 4 contain consequential amendments to secondary legislation and assimilated law respectively, rendered necessary by the coming into force of the PA 2023.

Part 5 and the Schedule contain repeals and revocations rendered necessary by the coming into force of the PA 2023.

Part 6 contains transitional provisions which set out the circumstances in which the amendments made to the Water Industry (Specified Infrastructure Projects) (English Undertakers) Regulations 2013 (via regulation 17) and the Heath Care Services (Provider Selection Regime) Regulations 2023 (via regulation 28) will not have affect.

An impact assessment in relation to the PA 2023 and associated reforms was published in May 2022 and can be found at https:/bills.parliament.uk/publications/46429/documents/1767 or may be obtained by writing to the Cabinet Office, 70 Whitehall, London, SW1A 2AS, United Kingdom.
