Schedule 2, Part 2, paragraph 7

A contract is an exempted contract if it is— a contract of a kind listed in this Part of this Schedule; a framework for the future award of contracts only of a kind listed in this Part of this Schedule. But a Part 2-only contract is not an exempted contract if, on award of the contract, a contracting authority considers that— the goods, services or works representing the main purpose of the contract could reasonably be supplied under a separate contract, and that contract would not be a contract of a kind listed in this Part of this Schedule. In considering whether goods, services or works could reasonably be supplied under a separate contract, a contracting authority may, for example, have regard to the practical and financial consequences of awarding more than one contract. In this paragraph “Part 2-only contract” means a contract of a kind listed in this Part of this Schedule that is not of a kind listed in Part 1 of this Schedule.
