Novelties of legal protection in public procurement procedures in Slovenia

V delu diplomskega projekta je obravnavano pravno varstvo v postopkih javnega naročanja, ki predstavlja varnost za ponudnike in naročnike. Statistični podatki kažejo, da se število javnih naročil povečuje, hkrati pa se povečuje število zahtevkov za revizijo (Ministrstvo za javno upravo, Statistično poročilo o javnih naročilih, oddanih v letu 2016, 2017, 2018), . Deleži javnih naročil v bruto domačem proizvodu (v nadaljevanju BDP) ter odhodki proračuna Republike Slovenije (v nadaljevanju RS) in samoupravnih lokalnih skupnosti pa se zmanjšujejo v zadnjem letu. Leta 2017 so bili v primerjavi z letom 2016 manjši, če pa primerjamo leto 2017 in 2018, so bili leta 2017 večji (Ministrstvo za javno upravo, Statistično poročilo o javnih naročilih, oddanih v letu 2016, 2017, 2018). Ministrstvo za javno upravo je tako podalo predlog za spremembo in dopolnitev zakon Zakon o pravnem varstvu v postopkih javnega naročanja (Uradni list RS, št. 43/11, 60/11 – ZTP-D, 63/13, 90/14 – ZDU-1I, 60/17 in 72/19 v nadaljevanju ZPVPJN). Z novelo ZPVPJN C, ki je vstopila v veljavo lani decembra, naj bi se povečala neodvisnost Državne revizijske komisije (v nadaljevanju DKOM), povečala učinkovitost ter ureditev polnega sodnega varstva zoper odločitve DKOM. Poleg vseh zakonov o javnem naročanju, je za prakso pomembno, kako ravna v primeru kršitev zakonodaje DKOM. Tako so v delu diplomskega projekta predstavljeni trije izbrani primeri iznovejše prakse DKOM. V vseh primerih je bil uporabljen odprti postopek javnega naročanja, vendar je DKOM pri vsakem izbrala drugačno odločitev na podlagi okoliščin primera. Skozi primere lahko vidimo, kako dejansko poteka postopek pravnega varstva pri javnih naročilih. Največja novost novele C ZPVPJN predstavlja 39.a člen, ki ureja upravni spor. Posebnost tega je, da z upravnim sporom ne bo možno spremeniti ali razveljaviti odločitev DKOM, ampak se bo preverjala le njena legalnost.Diploma contains part of legal protection in public procurement procedures, which represents security for providers and clients. Statistical data shows that the number of public procurements is increasing, and also the number of review requests is increasing (Statistical report on public procurement cast in 2016, 2017, 2018). The shares of public procurement in gross domestic product and expenditures of the budget of the Republic of Slovenia and self-governing local communities have been declining in the last year. In 2017, they were smaller compared to 2016, but if we compare 2017 and 2018, they were larger in 2017 (Statistical report on public procurement cast in 2016, 2017, 2018). The Ministry of Public Administration submitted a proposal to amend the Legal Protection in Public Procurement Procedures Act (in continued ZPVPJN). whe novel ZPVPJN-C, which enters into the force last December, is expected to increase the independence of the National Review Commission (in continued DKOM). At the same time, there would be seen the increase of efficiency and regulation of judicial protection against DKOM decisions. In addition to all the public procurement laws, it is essential how case law is formed through the conclusions and decisions of DKOM. In the diploma, there are three chosen cases from the latest DKOM practice. All three cases are containing an open procedure, but DKOM accept a different decision based on evidence. Through the cases, we can see how the procedure actually works in the legal protection of public procurements. The most significant novelty of amendment to the ZPVPJN is Article 39.a, which regulates administrative disputes. The specialty of it is that administrative disputes will not be able to change or annul the decision of the National Review Commission, but only its legality will be verified
