For the Coalition, it's apparently a process that they can abuse to funnel taxpayers' money to their mates or donors.

This week's examples: Paladin, Canstruct, Helloworld.

Is that from Austender or merely your tender observations? Grin

Only once company met the requirements in each case, and each just happens to be a Lib donor and one's honcho is the Libs donations organiser?

Complain to Austender, you have that right.

Let's refer Austender to Federal ICAC .... oh ... wait a minute..... Undecided

Well.. let's do a little research.... not much meat.... but it does say 'to encourage competition', so it seems that one company tenders are out of line......

List them ...... then we'll talk... one company tenders do not encourage competition, simple enough, and one company cannot be the only one to meet the requirements or to apply, and the 'requirements' seem to be pretty loose around these three ... if it smells like a fish market, it is a fish market... Cool

So you would force eligible companies to participate in a tender even though they didn't want a part of it?
