C-65.1 - Act respecting contracting by public bodies

Full text
21.41.1. An enterprise whose authorization has expired or is suspended must, within 10 days after the expiry or suspension, send to the Authority, in writing, the name of every public body with which the enterprise has a contract in process.
Such an enterprise must continue to perform any public contract or subcontract for which such an authorization is required. However, it is required to submit to any oversight or monitoring measure the Authority may impose on it, in accordance with Division IV, until the performance of the contract or subcontract ends.
Despite the second paragraph, an enterprise referred to in that paragraph must cease performing the public contract to which it is party, at the request of the public body concerned, if a decision is rendered under section 25.0.4.
The fact that an enterprise’s authorization expires while the enterprise is in the process of performing a public contract or subcontract for which such an authorization is required constitutes a failure of the enterprise to comply with this Act for which a monetary administrative penalty may be imposed under Division II of Chapter VIII.2.

21.41.1. An enterprise whose authorization expires while it is in the process of performing a public contract for which such an authorization is required is, subject to being given permission by the Conseil du trésor under section 25.0.4, deemed to have defaulted on performance of the contract on the expiry of a period of 60 days after the expiry date of the authorization if no application for renewal is submitted to the Authority. However, the enterprise is not deemed to have defaulted as regards honouring the contract guarantees.
