Legal regulation of the administration’s privilege to terminate the administrative contract for reasons of public interest

Abstract

Contracts، whether administrative or civil، generally come to a natural conclusion once their objectives have been fully executed. If the contractor fulfills the tasks assigned in the administrative contract to the fullest extent، and the administrative authority fulfills its contractual obligations as well، the contract terminates normally upon achieving its purpose. However، an administrative contract may also end without being executed، a process known as the termination of the administrative contract for public interest considerations by the administrative authority. This is the focus of our research، aiming to clarify the legal framework governing the administrative authority’s power to terminate administrative contracts for the sake of public interest. The research also examines the resulting legal obligations، the basis of such obligations، their nature، and their legal scope.
