The following rejection reasons in the procurement regulations § 24-2 are purely national rejection reasons: • § 24-2 (2). This provision states that the contracting authority shall reject a tenderer when they are aware that the tenderer has been legally convicted or has accepted a writy for the stated punishable conditions. The requirement that the contracting authority shall reject tenderers who have accepted a wreap for the stated punishable conditions is a distinctively Norwegian requirement. • § 24-2 (3) letter in. The rejection reason in the ESPD form only concerns serious errors in professional practice, whilst the Norwegian rejection reason also includes other serious errors that can lead to doubt about the tenderer's professional integrity.
