"The Public Procurement Directive first entered into force forty years ago (Directive 71/305/EEC). Despite its important contribution over all these years, the directive has reached its limits. It needs to be revised so that it responds to modern requirements (simplified procedures that prevent bureaucracy) and challenges (problems of corruption and legal insecurity).
In fact, in the present financial crisis in Europe, bureaucracy may well cause delays in preparing important development initiatives, while corruption and convolutedness appear to be on the increase. The debate on public procurement has thus been re-opened at the right moment in time and I therefore support it."@en1
