Such additional information should be requested from the address in section 1.1.

  If an appeal regarding the award of a contract has not been successfully resolved the Public Contracts Regulations 2006 provide for aggrieved parties who have been harmed or are at risk of harm by a breach of the rules to take action in the High Court (England, Wales and northern Ireland). Any such action must be brought promptly (generally within 3 months).
