| The Dutch ministries of Economic Affairs (EZ) and Education, Culture &
| Science (OCW) find it undesirable that students in the secondary vocational
| education system (MBO) are only being taught to use closed software systems
| from a few companies, according to EZ secretary Frank Heemskerk.

Forcing Dutch procurement to be transparent
,----[ Quote ]
| You may remember last September I published an interview with crusading Dutch
| IT journalist Brenno de Winter. During our meeting, we discussed the sorry
| state of ICT procurement in Europe and the findings from a research group
| that many tenders illegally specified products rather than technologies.
