Compliance requirements
The contracting authority will exclude a bidder if any exclusion ground under Section 95(1) of the Public Procurement Act applies. The bidder must confirm that neither it nor its representatives have been convicted of participation in a criminal organisation, corruption, fraud, terrorism, money laundering, illegal use of child labour or human trafficking. The bidder must also confirm that it has no tax, fee or environmental charge arrears, and no tax or social security contribution arrears in its country of establishment, and that entering into the contract would not breach an international sanction or a sanction of the Government of the Republic. If the bid is submitted with a foreign undertaking or uses foreign related persons, documents proving the absence of exclusion grounds must be provided if requested by the contracting authority.
