In August 2016, the TCC (the division of the High Court which commonly hears public procurement disputes) issued a draft Protocol on Procedures for Public Procurement Cases, to provide guidance on the court process. The guidance apparently addresses issues including pre-action conduct, confidentiality and expedited hearings. However, at the time of writing, it had yet to be approved by the Deputy Head of Civil Justice. Once approved, the final version of the Protocol will be annexed to the TCC Guide and should provide useful guidance to claimants and practitioners.
