Nominations being sought to Public Procurement Commission

The Public Accounts Com-mittee (PAC) of Parliament is in the process of nominating persons to be members of the long-awaited Public Procurement Com-mission (PPC) and is inviting interested stakeholders to submit names of nominees for consideration.

Following a number of controversies in relation to procurement, there have been numerous calls over the years for the establishment of the PPC which is provided for in the law but successive governments have failed to set up the commission.

In recent ads in the newspapers, Parlia-ment Office said that the PAC is in the process of nominating persons to be members of the PPC.
