Section 38 - Procurement strategy
100.This section requires contracting authorities to prepare and publish a “procurement strategy” setting out how the authority intends to carry out public procurement in a socially responsible way, how it intends to take reasonable steps to meet the objectives that it has set (see section 24) and how it intends to make payments promptly. Other matters to be included in procurement strategies may be set out in regulations made from time to time by the Welsh Ministers.
101.Under subsection (4), these strategies must be reviewed each year and any subsequent revisions must be published. Joint strategies may be published by two or more authorities.
