Tilvejebragelsespligt

Tilvejebragelsespligt is a Danish legal term that translates roughly to "obligation to provide" or "duty of supply." It refers to a legal requirement for a party to furnish or make available a specific good, service, or resource to another party. This obligation can arise from various legal sources, including contracts, statutes, or administrative decisions.

The scope and nature of the tilvejebragelsespligt depend heavily on the specific context in which it is applied. For instance, in contract law, a seller has a tilvejebragelsespligt to deliver the goods or perform the services agreed upon in the contract. Failure to meet this obligation can lead to breach of contract claims. In public law, certain entities may have a tilvejebragelsespligt to provide essential services, such as utilities or public transportation, to the population within their jurisdiction.

Statutory provisions can also impose a tilvejebragelsespligt. For example, laws might require employers to provide a safe working environment or certain types of insurance for their employees. Similarly, administrative regulations can mandate that public authorities make certain information or resources available to citizens. The precise terms and conditions of the tilvejebragelsespligt are typically defined by the underlying legal instrument or regulation that creates it, including aspects like quality, quantity, timing, and any associated costs or remuneration.
