SI: Complaint over government purchase of proprietary software
,----[ Quote ]
| Slovenia's court of Auditors and Slovenia's
| anti-corruption authority have received an
| anonymous complaint regarding the government's
| procuring of proprietary software licences for
| computer operating systems and office
| applications, Slovenian media reported last
| Month.
|
| The complainant, using the pseudonym 'Kranjski
| Tux', is asking the government's auditors and
| anti-corruption authority to investigate the
| ministry's negotiations and licence agreement
| between the Ministry for Public Administration
| with Microsoft between 2002 and 2010.
| According to the complaint these deals are
| violating procurement rules, ignore basic
| economic principles and are hindering
| competition between software suppliers.
