I got a letter issued to allow the schools deal directly with their supplier of choice, subject to the Accounting Officer for the school signing off as being happy with the value offered. Other insinuations have been made today about the national procurement office which need to be clarified. I will be asking the Comptroller and Auditor General to prepare a special report if such insinuations continue to be asserted.
