Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/1829
of 30 October 2019
amending Directive 2014/25/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council in respect of the thresholds for supply, service and works contracts, and design contests
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Whereas:
One of the objectives of Directive 2014/25/EU is to allow the contracting entities, which apply that Directive, to comply at the same time with the obligations laid down in the Agreement. In accordance with Article 17(1) of Directive 2014/25/EU, every two years the Commission is to verify that the thresholds for contracts and design contests set out in points (a) and (b) of Article 15 of that Directive correspond to the thresholds established in the Agreement. Given that the value of the thresholds calculated in accordance with Article 17(1) of Directive 2014/25/EU is different from the value of the thresholds set out in points (a) and (b) of Article 15 of that Directive, it is necessary to revise these thresholds.
Directive 2014/25/EU should therefore be amended accordingly,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
