Finance Secretary Dr Ken Ngangan, said too often contracts where given under suspicious circumstances. But with the centralised system, all procurement will achieve value for money.
He said the Central Supply and Tenders Board (CSTB) has been transformed into the National Procurement Commission (NPC). And it will operate under the revised Procurement Act.
“The (revised) Procurement Act will now be the guiding principle under which procurement will take place.
