  • The Basingstoke Canal Authority (BCA) (a local Council partnership hosted by Hampshire County Council) (HCC) manages the Basingstoke Canal for HCC and Surrey County Council (SCC) - the owners of the waterway since 1976. The Canal was restored by Countryside Rangers, Canal Society Volunteers and Manpower Services Commission Job Creation workers. They rebuilt the lock gates in a converted workshop using timber supplied by SCC. The BCA was formed in 1990 to manage the restored waterway and initially continued to build the lock gates themselves "in house". In the mid-1990s changes in staffing and the cessation of the "job creation" Apprentices' Scheme led to lock gates being procured externally from specialist suppliers. Since 2016 lock gates have been procured through a multi-supplier framework of oak specialist joiners. Historically, the gates have been delivered to the Canal by the supplier but are moved to site and installed by the Canal Authority staff. Hampshire County Council (the Authority), on behalf of the BCA, intends to establish a multi-supplier framework for the provision of manufacture, delivery and installation of lock gates for Basingstoke Canal, including supporting measurement services.Value not stated

Review Details
The Public Contracts Regulations 2015 (SI 2015/102) 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 started within thirty (30) days beginning with the date when the aggrieved party first knew or ought to have known that grounds for starting such proceedings had arisen. The Court may extend the time-limit for starting proceedings where the Court considers that there is good reason for doing so, but not so as to permit proceedings to be started more than three (3) months after that date. Where the Contract has not been concluded, the Court may set aside the decision to award the Contract or order the Contracting Authority to amend any document and may award damages. If the Contract has been concluded, the Court may only award damages, or where the award procedures have not been followed correctly, declare the Contract to be ineffective.
