            COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2015/1986
of 11 November 2015
         
establishing standard forms for the publication of notices in the field of public procurement and repealing Implementing Regulation (EU) No 842/2011
(Text with EEA relevance)


THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,


Having regard to Council Directive 89/665/EEC of 21 December 1989 on the coordination of the laws, regulations and administrative provisions relating to the application of review procedures to the award of public supply and public works contracts (1), and in particular Article 3a thereof,


Having regard to Council Directive 92/13/EEC of 25 February 1992 coordinating the laws, regulations and administrative provisions relating to the application of Community rules on the procurement procedures of entities operating in the water, energy, transport and telecommunications sectors (2), and in particular Article 3a thereof,


Having regard to Directive 2009/81/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 July 2009 on the coordination of procedures for the award of certain works contracts, supply contracts and service contracts by contracting authorities in the field of defence and security, and amending Directives 2004/17/EC and 2004/18/EC (3), and in particular Articles 32(1), 52(2) and 64 thereof,


Having regard to Directive 2014/23/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 February 2014 on the award of concession contracts (4), and in particular Article 33(1) and (2) thereof,


Having regard to Directive 2014/24/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 February 2014 on public procurement and repealing Directive 2004/18/EC (5), and in particular Articles 51(1) and (2) 75(3) and 79(3) thereof,


Having regard to Directive 2014/25/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 February 2014 on procurement by entities operating in the water, energy, transport and postal services sectors and repealing Directive 2004/17/EC (6), and in particular Articles 71(1) and (2), 92(3) and 96(2) thereof,

Whereas:







(1)


Directives 89/665/EEC and 2014/24/EU require that public supply, public works and public service contracts be advertised in the Official Journal of the European Union. The notices for those publications should include the information set out in those Directives.












(2)


Directives 92/13/EEC and 2014/25/EU require that works contract, supply contracts and service contracts in the water, energy, transport and postal services sectors be advertised in the Official Journal of the European Union. The notices for those publications should include the information set out in those Directives.












(3)


Directive 2009/81/EC requires that certain works contracts, supply contracts and service contracts in the field of defence and security be advertised in the Official Journal of the European Union. The notices for that publication should include the information set out in that Directive.












(4)


Directives 89/665/EEC, 92/13/EEC and 2014/23/EU require that works concessions and service concessions be advertised in the Official Journal of the European Union. The notices for those publications should include the information set out in those Directives.












(5)


Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 842/2011 (7) sets out the standard forms provided for by Directives 2004/17/EC, 2004/18/EC, 2009/81/EC, 89/665/EEC and 92/13/EEC.












(6)


In order to comply with Directives 2014/23/EU, 2014/24/EU and 2014/25/EU and to ensure the full effectiveness of Directives 89/665/EEC and 92/13/EEC, it is necessary to adapt the standard forms annexed to Implementing Regulation (EU) No 842/2011 and to add new standard forms. Given the number and extent of the necessary adjustments, Implementing Regulation (EU) No 842/2011 should be replaced.












(7)


However, where a Member State implements Directives 2014/23/EU, 2014/24/EU or 2014/25/EU or the amendments to Directive 89/665/EEC or 92/13/EEC before the end of the deadline on 18 April 2016, its contracting authorities and contracting entities should hereafter only use the standard forms established by the present Implementing Regulation as these alone are designed to ensure conformity with the legal requirements of the new or amended Directives.












(8)


Directive 2009/81/EC has not been amended; consequently the standard forms provided for by that Directive have also remained unchanged. They should therefore continue to be used until Implementing Regulation (EU) No 842/2011 is repealed.












(9)


The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Advisory Committee on Public Procurement,
