I.12.1 The FWC is governed by Union law, complemented, where necessary, by the law of Hungary. I.12.2 The courts of Budapest have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute regarding the interpretation, application or validity of the FWC. If necessary for performance of a specific contract, the contracting authority may give the personnel of the contractor access to its premises by means of an access card. The access card remains the property of the CEPOL and must be returned to the Service Card Office (CEPOL Headquarter – Monday to Friday 08:30-16:30) upon request, upon expiry or in cases where the application conditions are no longer met. If the access card is not returned on the day it expires, the contracting authority may claim liquidated damages of 100 EUR for each day of delay up to a maximum of EUR 1000. This represents a reasonable estimate of fair compensation for the damage incurred.

FWC Suspension by the contractor If the contractor is affected by force majeure, it may suspend the provision of the services under a specific contract. The contractor must immediately notify the contracting authority of the suspension. The notification must include a description of the force majeure and state when the contractor expects to resume the provision of services. The contractor must notify the contracting authority as soon as it is able to resume performance of the specific contract, unless the contracting authority has already terminated the FWC or the specific contract. Suspension by the contracting authority The contracting authority may suspend the implementation of the FWC or performance of a specific contract or any part of it: (a) if the procedure for awarding the FWC or a specific contract or the implementation of the FWC proves to have been subject to substantial errors, irregularities or fraud; (b) in order to verify whether the presumed substantial errors, irregularities or fraud actually occurred. The contracting authority must formally notify the contractor of the suspension. Suspension takes effect on the date of formal notification, or at a later date if the formal notification so provides. The contracting authority must notify the contractor as soon as possible whether: it is lifting the suspension; or it intends to terminate the FWC or a specific contract under Article II.18.1(f) or (j). The contractor is not entitled to compensation for suspension of any part of the FWC or a specific contract. FWC Grounds for termination by the contracting authority The contracting authority may terminate the FWC or a specific contract in the following circumstances: if provision of the services under a pending specific contract has not actually started within 15 days of the scheduled date and the contracting authority considers the new date proposed, if any, unacceptable, taking into account Article II.11.2; if the contractor is unable, through its own fault, to obtain any permit or licence required for implementation of the FWC; if the contractor does not implement the FWC or perform the specific contract in accordance with the tender specifications or request for service or is in breach of another substantial contractual obligation or repeatedly refuses to sign specific contracts. Termination of three or more specific contracts in these circumstances also constitutes grounds for termination of the FWC;
