Penalty for withdrawal of work in public works contracts : A comparative study

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: One of the key administrative sanctions available to the administration is the ability to pressure a negligent contractor in cases of serious error or default, compelling them to fulfill their contractual obligations without resorting to the judiciary.This power, often based on contractual provisions or legal authorization, allows the administration to carry out the work at the contractor's expense to ensure the uninterrupted operation of public facilities and serve the public interest.However, this discretionary authority is not absolute and must not infringe upon the contractor's rights.To prevent administrative arbitrariness, legal safeguards have been established, including granting the contractor the right to present a defense before penalties are imposed and subjecting the penalty decision to judicial review for legality and appropriateness.‫العامة‬ ‫االشغال‬ ‫عقؾد‬ ‫في‬ ‫العسل‬ ‫سحب‬ ‫اء‬ ‫جد‬ -‫نة‬ ‫مقار‬ ‫اسة‬ ‫در‬ -Al-rafidain of Law, Vol.(25), No. (90), Year (27) 243 ‫انعامت‬ ‫االشغال‬ ‫عمىد‬ ‫يف‬ ‫انعمم‬ ‫سحب‬ ‫جساء‬ -‫ممارنت‬ ‫دراست‬ -‫انعسيس‬ ‫عبذ‬ ‫خانذ‬ ‫فىاز‬ ‫صاحل‬ ‫انمادر‬ ‫عبذ‬ ‫ليذار‬ ‫نينىي‬ ‫صحت‬ ‫دائرة‬ ‫ادلىصم‬ ‫جامعت‬ ‫احلمىق/‬ ‫كهيت‬ ‫ادلستخهص‬ ‫د‬ ‫ٜعترب‬ ‫ايعاَ١‬ ‫املكاٚ٫ت‬ ‫عكٛد‬ ‫يف‬ ‫املكضس‬ ‫املكاٍٚ‬ َٔ ‫ايعٌُ‬ ‫ضشب‬ ‫صا٤‬ ‫يًغػط‬ ‫اإلداز٠‬ ‫دٗ١‬ ‫تطتعًُٗا‬ ‫قد‬ ‫اييت‬ ‫ايغاغط١‬ ‫اإلدازٜ١‬ ‫اؾصا٤ات‬ ‫صٛز‬ ‫أبسش‬ ‫إسد٣‬ ‫ٚذيو‬ ‫قبً٘،‬ َٔ ‫تكضري‬ ‫أٚ‬ ‫دطِٝ‬ ‫خطا‬ ‫ٚدٛد‬ ‫ساي١‬
