The Supreme Administrative Court dismissed the municipality's appeal against the social and health committee's decision to award fire transport services to the lowest bidder. The committee selected the municipality's own fire and rescue service based on the lowest tender offer, a decision the municipal board initially upheld before rejecting correction requests. The court ruled that the committee acted within its statutory authority by prioritizing the lowest price in the public procurement process.
