Comparison of the ECB’s internal review procedure for contract award decisions with the legal framework for the review of such decisions in other EU, international and national organisations.

The discussion will compare the ECB’s internal review procedure for contract award decisions (i.e. the Procurement Review Body) with the legal framework for the review of such decisions in other EU, international and national organisations. It will include a stocktaking after 15 years of decisions of the PRB; an assessment of the impact of recent case law on review procedures and the requirements for obtaining interim relief from the Court of Justice of the European Union; as well as practical problems that arise, for example in terms of the language regime.
