Public sector procurement has rarely featured higher in the news agenda than over the last year. So it is good timing as we enter the new year that we will be running our annual procurement and contracting law update, taking you through the key legal factors you need to be aware of when working in procurement within the public sector. The webinar will be held at 10am on Thursday 28th January 2021, and is free to register

We will cover a wide range of subjects, which in current circumstances is an even faster moving environment than normal. We will therefore further clarify topics as we approach the date, but broad areas are likely to include:

• The latest position and impact of Brexit from a procurement and contracting perspective
• Latest case law
• The law on ongoing and new procurements
• What will happen to frameworks?
• Which case law will apply?
• Application of latest guidance
• Contract best practice
• PFI and outsourcing contract guidance and review
• Insolvency
• Claims for additional COVID-19 and/or Brexit related costs

The session will be delivered by experienced partners Melanie Pears and Tim Care as well as other members of our specialist, highly regarded public sector team.
