Preventing Bid Rigging in the Public Procurement Process: Discussion
Mr. Brian McHugh:
We receive complaints about potential breaches of the law and whether it is competition or consumer protection, we will look into them and, potentially, begin an investigation. Many of our cases, and indeed elsewhere, are begun on the basis of a complaint. We are not an ombudsman who deals with, takes and tries to address all of one's complaints. It is, however, a very important avenue of information for us.
