Vote 39 - Office of Government Procurement (2 Mar 2021) Brian Stanley: I have some questions for Mr. Moloney about the vaccination centres. People understand that a lot of the procurement rules had to be set aside due to the speed and nature of the pandemic. We have been aware for six or seven months that vaccination centres would be needed and a number of organisations did offer their premises for use as vaccination centres. In England and other countries,...

Vote 39 - Office of Government Procurement (2 Mar 2021) Brian Stanley: The complexity is a large venue that is clean. I understand that the Pfizer vaccine must be stored below minus 70° Celsius but it is being brought to centres that do not have a cold storage facility and used within a few hours.

Vote 39 - Office of Government Procurement (2 Mar 2021) Brian Stanley: We would hope that those lessons are learned. My final questions concern social and environmental clauses in terms of public procurement. How much leeway have we about including these clauses in terms of EU Single Market rules? We have had some discussion on the environmental and green elements that are being incorporated into contracts but very little discussion on the social element....

Vote 39 - Office of Government Procurement (2 Mar 2021) Brian Stanley: I will allow the committee members to each ask a brief question but first I would like Mr. Moloney to give me a "Yes" or "No" answer to the following. Is he saying that the contracted body, be it a Department or State agency, has the power to say to a contractor that has the contract for a particular project that it must do X, Y and Z when it comes to working conditions? Is that correct,...
