The bidder may be excluded if it, or a member of its administrative, management or supervisory body or a person authorised to represent, decide for or control it, has a final conviction within the previous five years for participation in a criminal organisation, corruption, fraud, terrorist offences, money laundering or terrorist financing, child labour or human trafficking. Where permitted, the bidder may provide evidence of measures taken to restore its reliability.
