109.—(1) Subject to paragraphs (2) and (5), this Chapter applies to procurements by contracting authorities with respect to public contracts where Part 2 does not apply because the estimated value of the procurement is less than the relevant threshold mentioned in regulation 5.
(2) This Chapter does not apply in any of the following cases:—
(a)where Part 2 would not have applied even if the estimated value of the procurement had been equal to or greater than the relevant threshold mentioned in regulation 5;
(b)where the contracting authority is a central government authority and the procurement has a value net of VAT estimated to be less than £10,000;
(c)where the contracting authority is—
(i)a sub-central contracting authority or an NHS Trust, and
(ii)the procurement has a value net of VAT estimated to be less than £25,000;

(4) A procurement shall not be subdivided with the effect of preventing it from falling within the scope of this Chapter, unless justified by objective reasons.
