(Kaieteur News) – A Partnership for National Unity (APNU) has proposed that the Public Procurement Commission (PPC) be reconstituted, with the matter set to appear on the Public Accounts Committee’s (PAC) agenda tomorrow.

The disclosure was made last week by Member of Parliament (MP) and Opposition Commissioner on the PAC, Ganesh Mahipaul, in a telephone interview with this publication, later followed by a written statement. Mahipaul said he was pleased the Committee had agreed to place the matter on its next agenda, describing it as the first step toward reviewing the current situation and taking the necessary action to reconstitute the Commission.

“The APNU also proposed that the process to reconstitute the Public Procurement Commission be commenced in accordance with the established statutory procedure, beginning with the advertisement for suitably qualified persons to apply,” he said.
