As the Public Procurement Commission (PPC) begins its investigation into the drug procurement process at the Georgetown Public Hospital, it is inviting members of the public who have information to submit written statements by April 12.
“The Public Procurement Commission is committed to a completely transparent and objective investigation, and invites members of the public who may have pertinent information to make written submissions to the Chairman, Public Procurement Commission at Parliament Office, Parliament Buildings by 12th April 2017,” PPC Chairman Carol Corbin said in a statement yesterday.
Corbin had told Stabroek News that she would be reviewing Public Health Minister Volda Lawrence’s over-$605 million emergency purchase of drugs for the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC), in the wake of concerns that procurement procedures were breached.
