| Objective of the consultation |
| Public procurement is confronted today with important new challenges: high public deficits and the resulting need for the most efficient use of public money but also the growing demand that public purchasing contributes to the achievement of overall societal goals such as fostering innovation, fighting climate change and promoting social inclusion. The present consultation launched a public debate on how the EU public procurement legislation could be updated in order to help public procurers cope with these challenges. The
replies to the wide consultation on all possible aspects of such a legislative reform will help the Commission to make the right policy choices in its future legislative proposal. |
