Preventing Bid Rigging in the Public Procurement Process: Discussion
Mr. Brian McHugh:
There is a huge amount of collaboration at the European level from a competition perspective. In terms of how parties that have been convicted of breaching competition law might be dealt with by procurement agencies, from a competition network perspective, that is not a decision for us. I know it has been discussed at the European level from the point of view of procurement agencies how this kind of undertaking might be co-ordinated, but I do not claim to be an expert in this area.
