Izmjene u pravnoj zaštiti predviđenoj Zakonom o postupcima javne nabave
Prve izmjene i dopune u pravnoj zaštiti predviđenoj Zakonom o postupcima javne nabave (ZPVPJN-A) stupile su na snagu 10. kolovoza 2013.g. i donose neke poželjne, kao i mnoge ključne izmjene i dopune.
Posebno su radikalne izmjene i dopune odredbi članka 5. stavka 1., koji uređuje kada je dopušteno podnijeti zahtjev za reviziju. Ranija odredba koja je predviđala da je zahtjev za reviziju moguće podnijeti »protiv bilo kojih radnji javnog naručitelja«, izmjenjena je na način da je sada zahtjev za reviziju moguće podnijeti samo »protiv radnji javnog naručitelja kojima se krše odredbe, te koje imaju ili bi mogle imati značajan utjecaj na dodjelu ugovora o javnim radovima “.
Druga temeljna izmjena članka 5. je nova obveza ponuditelja u svezi sa pridržavanjem aktivne legitimacije, kojom je predviđeno da, kada isti namjerava podnijeti zahtjev za pravnu zaštitu u odnosu na sadržaj natječaja, poziva za nadmetanje ili dokumentacije za nadmetanje, on ili eventualni drugi ponuditelj dužni su prethodno obavijestiti javnog naručitelja o navodnoj povredi putem Portala javne nabave.
Novost je i povlaštena odluka Nacionalne komisije za kontrolu o zahtjevima za reviziju zbog povrede postupovnih odredbi za dodjelu ugovora o javnim radovima koji se sufinanciraju iz europskih fondova.
Nadalje, izmjene u pravnoj zaštiti predviđenoj Zakonom o postupcima javne nabave odnose se na veće troškove, osim kod nekih izuzetaka kada troškovi iznose 1.000 eura, između ostalog, tomu je slučaj kada se zahtjev za reviziju odnosi na usluge na popisu usluga B ili na otvoreno natjecanje.
Najpoželjnija novost predstavlja mogućnost podnositelja zahtjeva da traži povrat polovine sudske pristojbe u slučaju kada povuče svoj zahtjev za reviziju nakon što je primio odluku javnog naručitelja kojom je njegov zahtjev odbijen, ali prije odluke o istome Nacionalne komisije za kontrolu.
Izuzev gore navedenih, kao najvažnijih, izmjene donose mali broj promjena i noviteta. Temeljna promjena odredbi članka 5. svakako će rezultirati mnogim novim situacijama u praksi, a čije rješavaenje nije dosljedno uređeno, te ćemo stoga iste očito ponovno s vremenom riješavati kroz praksu.
