The Contract shall be subject to Scots Law and the jurisdiction of the Scottish Courts. GBP means Great British Pounds. 111.1.2 - A Bank Reference Mandate Form is included for completion by economic operators where a Bank Reference is not submitted direct by the economic operator. The Council will carry out an Equifax check where a Bank Reference cannot be obtained and this will form part of the economic and financial evaluation of economic operators.

The Contracting Authority does not intend to include a sub-contract clause as part of community benefits (as per Section 25 of the Procurement Reform (Scotland) Act 2014) in this contract for the following reason: Whilst the overall estimated value is 6,000,000 GBP, the individual values for both contracts is 3,200,000 GBP and 2,800,000 GBP respectively. Due to this relatively low value and the difficulties and constraints of carrying out the works in a remote location, it is not considered appropriate for a sub-contract clause to be inserted. Community benefits are included in this requirement. For more information see: https://www.gov.scot/policies/public-sector-procurement/community-benefits-in-pr... A summary of the expected community benefits has been provided as follows: The overall contract duration of 48 months (Harlsdale plus Kalliness) provides the potential for the successful contractor to undertake the appointment and training of apprentices.
