Cabinet Office Survey- New Procurement Regime
The Green Paper “Transforming Public Procurement” set out a package of proposals to overhaul the rules that govern spending by public sector bodies. The Cabinet Office is analysing the responses to the recent consultation and preparing legislation that will be brought forward in the next few months.
To support the implementation, and instil confidence in the new regime, a learning and development programme is being developed. The Cabinet Office is seeking the input of procurement stakeholders from across the public sector via a short survey. Please direct any questions to procurement-reform@cabinetoffice.gov.uk.
