Appeal in P662m tender set for December :: Mmegi Online

The matter in which the Ministry of Child Welfare and Basic Education is appealing the decision of the High Court that had endorsed, as an order of the court, the cancellation of the P662 million e-learning tender has been set for December 3.

Last month, Justice Isaac Lesetedi of the Court of Appeal (CoA) ruled that the matter should be heard urgently, whilst time is of the essence for the Umbrella for Democratic Change (UDC) government to implement its proposed e-learning programme and demonstrate its success.

In this case, the ministry wants the apex court to set aside the Maun High Court’s decision to endorse as an order of the court, an administrative directive by the Public Procurement Regulatory Authority (PPRA) cancelling a P662 million tender for the implementation of an educational programme for basic education learners.
