Regulation 61 Communication of technical specificationsI1
Scotland
Subject to paragraph (3), the technical specifications referred to in paragraph (1) must be made available by electronic means of communication through unrestricted and full direct access free of charge.
Technical specifications must be transmitted by means other than electronic means where unrestricted and full direct access free of charge by electronic means to certain procurement documents cannot be offered—
for one of the reasons set out in regulations 38(3) or (5) (rules applicable to communication); or
because the utility intends to apply regulation 37(3) (confidentiality).
Where the technical specifications are based on documents available by electronic means through unrestricted and full direct access free of charge to interested economic operators, the inclusion of a reference to those documents must be sufficient.
