Brexit and public procurement: the state of play and the future of public procurement regulation in the UK

Arrowsmith, Sue

Abstract

This paper examines the prospects for public procurement in the UK after Brexit as at 20 June 2019. It looks first at the implications for procurement in the short term of two main possible scenarios, namely a Brexit with a transition arrangement and a “no deal” Brexit.
The paper then outlines the main possible scenarios for the EU-UK relationship in the longer term and consider what the implications might be for public procurement under each of these possible scenarios. Finally, the paper very briefly presents the author’s own preferred vision of a post-Brexit procurement world for the UK and will also suggest that this could even provide a future model for the EU to follow.
