Parliament deputies ask to consider amendments to the legislation that will allow purchasing medicines and medical products through international organizations. Aibar Sultangaziyev, representative of Partner Network Association, said this today at a press conference in
24.kg news agency.
Ilim Sydykov, an independent procurement expert, added that the procurement procedure in the Kyrgyz Republic is carried out only through local suppliers. There is no exit to the international level. «Amendments to the law will save the money of the republican budget. And also we can buy those medicines that we have not registered yet. There are examples of neighboring countries that order drugs through UNICEF, UNDP and other organizations,» he said.
Aibar Sultangaziyev noted that currently there are three draft laws on amendments to the law On Public Procurements initiated by the government and the deputies under consideration of the Parliament. On December 19, they will be considered in the second reading. «In order to effectively spend budget funds and eradicate corruption, we propose to consider our amendments,» he concluded.
