Buying Social: a giant step for the European Commission - a small step for sustainable procurement

Tourism

On 28 January 2011, the European Commission launched the long-awaited “Buying social: a guide to take account of social considerations in public procurement”.

EFFAT, in cooperation with a network of trade unions and social and sustainable development organisations, considers this guide fails to reflect the true potential of public procurement as an instrument in support of social and sustainable development objectives.

Much more is needed if the EU and Member States are to live up to the EU Treaty commitments and international obligations in this field. See attached press release.
