Concessions and Public-Private Partnerships will now be recorded in a dedicated electronic register. It will include data on the contracting institution, the object and duration of the contract, the value of the investment and of the contract, user fees, guarantees, tender documentation, contractual amendments, subcontracting, and termination of the contract. Documentation is submitted by the contracting authority within 15 days of signing. In cases where the contract has already entered into force and needs to be reflected differently, the deadline for reflecting it is 15 days. However, not every document will be accessible to the public, as confidential information will not be published. The register will be administered by the Concessions Management Agency. The National Agency for Information Society (AKSHI) will be in charge of its technical development and security.
