Open access paper – ‘Exclusion of third-country economic operators from EU public procurement and the Kolin judgment – new rules and lingering questions’
A big thank you to Thomson Reuters and Public Procurement Law Review for allowing me to publish this paper on my blog!
In the paper, I mostly analyse the legal gaps left by the CJEU in its seminal Kolin judgement. The paper was submitted before the CJEU published its Qingdao judgement and before the Commission’s Guidelines on third-country bidder access from May 2025. For my thoughts on Kolin, Qingdao, and the Guidelines, see my forthcoming paper in EPPPL (preprint available here) and my upcoming book on third-country economic operator access to the EU public procurement market (Edward Elgar 2026).
