22.0.1. A public body must, for each contract referred to in Chapter V, publish the following information on the electronic tendering system within the time specified:

(1)  within 72 days after the date the contract is entered into, the name of the contractor, a description of the object of the contract and the initial amount or estimated amount of the expenditure, as the case may be, or, if neither of those amounts are known at that time, within 72 days after the date such an amount is determined in the course of the contract;

(2)  within 120 days after taking delivery of the infrastructure built under a contract that confers the operation or maintenance of the infrastructure on the contractor, the total amount paid for its construction; and

(3)  within 120 days after the end of the contract, the total amount paid over the entire term of the contract.

The public body must also publish on the electronic tendering system, within 120 days of an amendment to the contract, every additional expenditure resulting from the amendment that exceeds the initial amount of the contract by more than 10%.

However, a public body is not required to publish the information referred to in subparagraph 1 of the first paragraph within the time specified if the authorization to carry out the infrastructure project has not yet been granted by the competent authority. In such a case, the information must be published within 72 days after obtaining the authorization.
