Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation

Competition Law and Trade Associations: Discussion

Mr. Fergal O'Leary:

It is absolutely an issue in terms of the disadvantage to the small player versus the large player in the tendering process. We are on the Office of Government Procurement SME advisory group. We want to ensure everybody has a chance. We want to ensure it is a little bit more rebalanced in favour of small and medium-sized enterprises to allow them an opportunity to tender for public procurement contracts. That is something we are working on with this part of the group.
