No more ministry work for fired contractor

Where the road was supposed to begin from

The Ministry of Public Works has written the national tender board and will also notify the Public Procurement Commission (PPC) why it no longer wishes sacked contracting firm, N&S General Engineering Contracting Services, to undertake any of its other projects.

“As for bidding again? Not at the Ministry of Public Works. We have written the Tender Board indicating that this is  [an errant] contractor and he should not be engaged in works at the ministry. Any other ministry wants to take him, fine, but not here. I am not here to curry favour with anybody and there are rules of engagement,” Minister of Public Works, Juan Edghill told the Sunday Stabroek during an interview.
