Not quite Dec. As a member of the EU the UK is required to ensure that public sector procurement is carried out in accordance with the EU Public Procurement Directives and, pari passu, the WTO Government Procurement Agreement. While this doesn't guarantee contractors won't go bust, it goes a long way to ensuring open and fair competition for government contracts, and that governments can't just award them to their mates. The UK is reasonably compliant, with very few ECJ judgements against it.Is there not some way we can blame the EU?
