Regina v HM Treasury, Ex Parte University of Cambridge: ECJ 3 Oct 2000

When considering public law governed the procedural requirements for procurement contracts, the court had to consider whether body was financed ‘for the most part’ by public funds. The words referred to the majority of income, and the calculations of what was publicly financed was to include those sums received from government otherwise than for consideration by way of services or supplies. For an educational institution this would include funds by way of grants, but would not include payments for research and similar.
