Preventing Bid Rigging in the Public Procurement Process: Discussion

Mr. Brian McHugh:

It is an important power we have received. We very much welcome it. In terms of the type of secret behaviour that happens in cartels, surveillance would potentially be used in any of those cases. I do not want to go into detail about if and how we use it. I think everyone will understand that we need to be very careful today about what detail we can go into. It is an important tool and we absolutely intend to use it.
