{The Minister of Trade and Industry, Fran\u00e7ois Kanimba has said that public procurement officers must respect 10% of chances reserved for industries and service providers in the country as per article 41 article of Public Procurement Act, meant to promote local products and services.}<\/p>\n
Some of private investors have complained that they do not get such opportunities of supplying to public institutions but, instead, offered to foreigners.<\/p>\n
The matter was last week discussed in a senatorial meeting where concerns were raised over giving many of the public tenders to foreign suppliers, which was looked at a deterrence to the development local capacities and industries that would have produced for export as well to reduce balance of trade deficit. <\/p>\n
Kanimba asked government institutions to implement the public procurement law.
\n\u201cWe have a public procurement law which offers chances to those operating within the country. The government institutions need to identify Rwandan industries involved in the bidding and accord them chances,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have a great task of reforming public procurement law implementation to promote products made in Rwanda. I hope the parliament will help to achieve this,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
