Role of the Contractor-Generals
Department
Office
The Contractor-General, the Office of the Contractor-General
and the National Contracts Commission (NCC) are three
(3) independent Commissions of Parliament established
through the Contractor-General Act of 1983 to ensure
that the public sector procurement process can withstand
public scrutiny. The Contractor General's Act was amended
in 1999 to provide for the establishment of a National
Contracts Commission.
Role
It is expected that the strengthened Contractor Generals
Office will ensure that there is transparency in the
administration of public sector contracts in Jamaica.
The NCC, which replaced the Government Contracts Committee
(set up in 1963), is designed to promote greater efficiency,
equity and transparency in the award and implementation
of government contracts.
Relationship with the National Contracts Commission
The Office of the Contractor General is responsible
for providing the Commission and its sector committees
with administrative and other resources to enable the
proper performance of its functions.
