the estimated date when the contract will be entered into,
a description of any option in the public contract—
to supply additional goods, services or works, or
to extend or renew the term of the contract,
where the framework is arranged by reference to lots, the distinct number given by the contracting authority to the lot under which the contract is being awarded,
details of which of the following procedures was used to award the public contract—
a competitive selection process for frameworks under section 46 of the 2023 Act, or
an award without further competition under section 45(4) of the 2023 Act, and
if sub-paragraph (e)(ii) applies, an explanation of why the contracting authority considered that it applies by reference to section 45(4) of the 2023 Act.
Nothing in this regulation prevents a contracting authority from publishing other information that relates to the same procurement in the notice.
