Procurement Bill and the transforming public procurement Green Paper

The Queen’s Speech holds out the prospect of a ‘Procurement Bill’. This is to implement the proposals in the Government’s Green Paper: Transforming public procurement.

We responded to the Green Paper consultation (which closed on 10 March). Over the past few weeks, we have issued a series of ebriefings profiling our consultation response. These are all available on our website and cover:

• Procurement principles
• Procurement regulator
• Procedures
• Selection criteria
• Award criteria
• Transparency
• DPS and frameworks
• Challenges

We would be very happy to send a copy of our full consultation response to anyone who would like to see everything we said in response to the consultation.

We also responded to the Welsh Government consultation on the proposed Social Partnership and Public Procurement (Wales) Bill.

For (free) copies of either or both of these consultation responses, please email Andrew Millross.
