Laptop debacle…– “would have had the authority to investigate the procedures which were used” – Corbin The government has failed to put in place the Public Procurement Commission. Had this body been in place then it would have been able to investigate the whole imbroglio surrounding the procurement of netbooks for the One Laptop For Family programme, said Leader of the Opposition Robert Corbin.Just days before the Head of State pronounced on the issue, Corbin said that the debacle could have been resolved a long time ago had the procurement commission been in place.“That Commission would have had the authority to investigate the procedures which were used…to review any complaints,” according to Corbin.The commission, he said, would have allowed for any aggrieved stakeholder to be allowed to have the process reviewed to see if there was transparency and fairness in the procurement of these laptops.President Bharrat Jagdeo has said that the initial laptops which were distributed at the launch of the programme were gifts while the Junior Finance Minister told the Parliament that the systems were procured through a competitive bidding process.Corbin said that the procurement commission would have been able to restrain some of the excesses.“Unfortunately the cabinet has replaced that public procurement commission in its absence.”He said that the people of Guyana need to be aware of what is going on.Corbin pointed out the Economic Services Committee as well as the Public Accounts Committee which are bodies that undertake scrutiny of the various sectors and expenditures.Cabinet involvement in matters related to the procurements shall have to cease when the Public Procurement Commission is established.The Procurement Act of Guyana stipulates the role of the Commission.Under the current Legislation, Cabinet has the right to review all procurements that exceed $15M.According to the legislation in force, Cabinet shall conduct its review on the basis of a streamlined tender evaluation report to be adopted by the commission.“The Cabinet and, upon its establishment, the Public Procurement Commission, shall review annually the Cabinet’s threshold for review of procurements, with the objective of increasing that threshold over time,Cheap Jerseys China, so as to promote the goal of progressively phasing out Cabinet involvement and decentralising the procurement process.”The Procurement also states that in conducting a review, Cabinet may object to the award of the procurement contract only if it determines that the procuring entity failed to comply with applicable procurement procedures.If the Cabinet objects to an award, the matter shall be referred to the procuring entity for further review.It is emphasised that the legislation’s clause shall not be construed as authorising the Cabinet to award a tender to any other supplier or contractor.The president, at a recent press briefing, told media operatives that the usual differences of opinion between the government and the People’s National Congress Reform is what led to the delay in the resubmission of the administration’s nominees for the Public Procurement Commission.President Bharrat Jagdeo said that some years ago, three nominees were submitted but there was a huge debate on the candidates and as such the process was paused.“I expect very soon that would happen, but we had submitted three nominees and there was a huge debate and it didn’t go very far and now we have to resubmit.”To date no names have been resubmitted.
