The decision presented sheds new light on the possibilities for exemptions from the rules on advertising and competitive tendering in the area of service concessions, justified by urgency. In view of the textual dynamic of reducing the hypotheses in which administrative authorities may exempt themselves from compliance with the minimum requirements for competitive tendering (see, for example, the decision of the European Parliament and of the Council of Ministers of the European Union on the application of the Directive), the Commission has decided that it is not necessary to adopt a new text on this subject.
