Article 57 of EU Directive 2014/24/EU states that contracting authorities shall exclude an economic operator from participation in a procurement procedure where they have established or are otherwise aware that that economic operator has been the subject of a conviction by final judgment of corruption, fraud, money laundering, child labour and select other offences. The directive was required to be transposed by Member states into their domestic law in 2014.
One example is Czechia’s Public Procurement Act, in accordance with the transposition of Directive 2014/24/EU, which allows contracting authorities to exclude a participant from a procurement procedure if the participant has committed corruption, pursuant to Section 74(1)(a) and as listed in Annex No.3.
