Amcanion cyffredinol
This module will help students develop a sound knowledge of Procurement Law and relevant legal issues from an international procurement perspective. Specifically students will explore:
• the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL) Model Law on Procurement of Goods, Construction and Services; • the World Trade Organization (WTO) Agreement on Government Procurement; • the procurement rules of selected international finance institutions - the World Bank, the African Development Bank and the Asian Development Bank.
Beyond examining the contexts and objectives of these procurement regimes, the module will introduce students to the relationships between supranational procurement frameworks and national procurement rules. In addition, the module will present the students with an opportunity to explore recent regulatory procurement reforms in international and selected national procurement regimes in relation to sustainable procurement and e-procurement.
