Default European Procurement Directive

Can someone confirm whether a public sector organisation has to publish
details of tenders received under either the EU directive or freedom of
information act, to an interested third party?

Many thanks

The detailed costings in a tender might provide information that would be
useful to a competitor in the same industry and so that for a time the
information might be considered to be commercially sensitive - so the public
authority might be able to withhold pricing information within the tender.

See Information Commissioner's Freedom of Information Act Awareness Guidance
