Public procurement

The Government has today received an inquiry report on the possibility of countries outside the EU to take part in public procurements of municipalities, regions and government agencies. This memorandum includes proposals on amendments to public procurement legislation with the aim of protecting national interests and ensuring harmonisation with EU law.

Today, in conjunction with the European Commission reviewing the EU public procurement directives, Minister for Public Administration Erik Slottner conveyed Sweden’s preliminary positions to the commissioner responsible for public procurement issues.
