Abstract/Description:

After a long period of preparation, Law 9/2017, 8th November, on Public Sector Contracts, that transposes the European Parliament and the Council Directives 2014/23/EU and 2014/24/EU, of 26 February 2014 into the Spanish legal system was published in the Spanish Official Journal on 9 November 2017. With this law the Spanish legislator has made great effort to meet the EU demands on public procurement. An overall assessment of the transposition shows that the main aims pursued by the Directive have been achieved. In many aspects, the Spanish law is even more stringent than the directives, with a determination to enhance transparency and to fight corruption in this field. Notwithstanding this, the rules are too soft and there remains room to improve with regard to some other matters, such as the promotion of genuine electronic public procurement
