    Operative part of the order

    Articles 76 and 77 of 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

    must be interpreted as not precluding national legislation that reserves for non-profit organisations the right to conclude, in accordance with the principles of advertising, competition and transparency, agreements under which those organisations provide social or health services of general interest, in return for reimbursement of the costs they incur, irrespective of the estimated value of those services, where the purpose of those agreements is to achieve objectives of solidarity, without necessarily improving the adequacy or budgetary efficiency of the provision of those services by comparison with the regime that is generally applicable to public-procurement procedures, provided,

    first, that the legal and contractual framework within which the activity of those organisations is carried out contributes effectively to the social purpose and objectives of solidarity and budgetary efficiency on which that legislation is based, and

    secondly, that the principle of transparency, as specified in particular in Article 75 of that directive, is respected.
