When public offer must be invited, and when offers may be invited in another way
62AE When public offer must be invited, and when offers may be invited in
another way
(1) This section applies if the chief executive proposes to enter into a
prescribed school service contract and— (a) no operator is entitled to, or
is to be given, the first opportunity to make an offer for the contract under
section 62AC or 62AD ; or
(b) an operator has been given a notice under
section 62AC or 62AD inviting the operator to offer for the contract and—
(i) the operator fails to make an offer within the time stated in the notice;
or
(ii) the operator refuses the invitation; or
(iii) the operator makes an
offer that the chief executive decides is unacceptable under section 59 .
(2)
The chief executive must, by public notice, invite offers from the public,
within a stated reasonable time, for a service contract to provide the
service.
(3) However if— (a) an operator makes an offer, within the time
stated in a notice given under section 62AC or 62AD ; and
(b) the chief
executive considers the offer substantially meets the requirements of an offer
that would be acceptable under section 59 ;
the chief executive may defer
inviting public offers to allow an opportunity for a contract to be concluded
with the operator.
(4) The chief executive may invite offers, other than by
public notice under subsection (2) , in any way the chief executive considers
appropriate, but only if the chief executive has already invited offers from
the public under subsection (2) .
(5) A time allowed to a person, under a
notice or otherwise, for making an offer does not prevent the person from
making an offer or further offer after that time.
