Questions referred
1. |
Do the principles of certainty in legal relations and the protection of legitimate expectations preclude a piece of national legislation which transposed Article 25 of Directive 2014/24/EU on public procurement (1) as from 5 April 2021, and which provided that economic operators who do not fall within the scope of those provisions of EU law may continue to participate in public procurement procedures only if they have submitted tenders before the date on which that legislative amendment entered into force? |
2. |
Do the principles of equal treatment, transparency and proportionality laid down in Article 18(1) of Directive 2014/24/EU on public procurement, in conjunction with Article 2(1)(13) and Article 49 thereof, preclude the exclusion of a tenderer on the basis of a legislative act having the force of law adopted by the government of a Member State which lays down a new rule amending the definition of ‘economic operator’ after publication of the contract notice relating to a contract award procedure in which that person is participating? |
(1) 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 (OJ 2014 L 94, p. 65).
