Djelic says law on public procurement helps state save money
BELGRADE - Serbian Minister of Finance and Economy Bozidar Djelic on Thursday said that the implementation of a law on public procurement, which took effect on July 13, 2002, helped the state save money in public procurement, fight corruption, open prospects for new domestic and foreign offerers and step up competition.
Speaking at a symposium on the results of and further steps in public procurement in Serbia, organised by the Finance Ministry and Public Procurement Administration with the support of USAID, Djelic said that the state, as the biggest buyer, spending an annual 60-80 billion dinars, had to act in a cost-effective way when using taxpayers' money.
