The esteemed British newspaper Financial Times calls upon the EU to support the fight against corruption in the Balkan countries. Spain can’t seem to put an end to the corruption scandals in the construction business on a local level, while in China it is esteemed that in the past 30 years the state officials put 50 billion dollars in their pockets. This news is on the front pages of this newsletter.<br /><br />In addition, the anticorruption expert, Vanja Mihajlova, analyzes and compares the role and independence of the anticorruption bodies in the countries from the region and offers recommendations for enhancing the efficiency of this body in our country.<br /><br />This is followed by a brief outline of the results from the recent research, which has shown that the media in the country do not play their socially important role in the fight against corruption, as well as recommendations for measures that need to be taken for the sake of more professional, independent, and objective reporting about this serious problem. The public procurements are also in the focus of this issue. The annual investigation of the public procurements process in our country shows that there is still a serious room for abuse and inefficient spending of the public money.<br /><br />The expert on public procurements, Darko Janevski, analyzes the advantages and weaknesses of the application of the electronic procurements from the perspective of their role in decreasing corruption.<br /><br />Misoslav Trajanovski, a legal expert on public procurements, recommends an implementation of supervision and control of the public procurements in our country.<br />We hope that the offered topics will trigger your interest and contribute to each and every one of us, in his/her line of work, to help in the direction of a greater and more consistent application of the principles and policies of “good governance”.<br /><a href=\"../images/stories/ang_mak_br1.pdf\"><br />The first MAK issue can be found here</a></p>', 'b89a7d3032a9086c244a84f826dcf25d', '', '2012-06-22 08:52:28', 62, 1),

The Bank has debarred over 100 firms and individuals over acts of fraud and corruption, which are automatically denied contracting opportunities at other multilateral development banks. The most productive of these cases was the one of last July against the German industrial conglomerate ‘Siemens’, which has been shut out from the World Bank financed projects for two years and committed to pay $100 million to support anti-corruption work.<br /><br />UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon says that corruption is a threat to development, democracy and stability.  It distorts markets, curbs economic growth and discourages foreign investment.  It erodes public services and trust in officials.  And it contributes to environmental damage and endangers public health by enabling the illegal dumping of hazardous waste and the production and distribution of counterfeit medicines.<br /><br />The Balkan region is witnessing one of the most serious corruption scandals – the detention of former Croatian Prime Minister Sanader. In this issue we are publishing an analysis of the affair of Croatian journalist Goran Jungvirt, who says that before any trial is to be taken in consideration some experts have already declared the former premier as guilty for masterminding the wide-spread system for financial services, based on embezzling the state property.<br /><br />Sport activities are often in the focus of large corruption affairs. Their connection with substantial amounts of money and large population is making it attractive to dirty businesses. If a century ago the head of modern Olympic Games, Pierre de Coubertin, said that ‘Money is the sports worst enemy,’ we may rightfully ask ourselves why the modern society consciously scarifies the second most important matter to people across the globe – sports. Legal expert and sport worker Damjan Siskovski offers detailed analysis on corruption in sports. Finally this issue presents the key findings of the monitoring of the public procurements in the Q3 of this year, as well as the recommendations for narrowing the room for abuse and corruption in spending public funds.<br /><br />We believe this pre-New Year issue offers useful articles for your contribution to more transparent, honest society.

At the same time, Croatia’s president decorated several brave citizens, who were ready to risk their lives in the fight against corruption and organized crime.<br /><br />On the other hand, there is a different situation in Bulgaria. An analysis prepared by journalist Borjana Dzambazova suggests that, due to police indifference and the fear of judges from those who are being tried, many people are being acquitted in cases related to crime and corruption. As a result, the anti-corruption campaign in Bulgaria has failed in court.<br /><br />In the previous issue of the monthly report, European Commission’s assessments on the anti-corruption policy and public procurement in Macedonia were presented, which were highlighted by the EU in its latest progress report for Macedonia on its road towards EU full-fledged membership. In this issue, our regular associate and one of the most esteemed anti-corruption experts in Macedonia, Vanja Mihajlova, compares the EC assessments of other Western Balkan countries regarding the matter.<br /><br />Assessments on the scope of corruption and measures aimed at diminishing it are unfavorable for all of the countries. Corruption is still considered a sensitive issue in the region. The general conclusion is that corruption is largely spread and that authorities do not demonstrate real political willingness to deal with it, even through certain counties show better results, especially in processing high-ranking corruption cases. Numerous shortcomings, lack of transparency and inadequate application of laws are also being noted in the field of public procurement.<br /><br />In continuation, we focus on a vital issue in the sphere of public procurement here – accessibility to documents related to public procurements. Could they become accessible to the public? If this is possible, then who, when and what can be obtained? Could data and documents be made only available for inspection or a document – in its original form or a copy – could be given to interested parties? These and other questions linked to the issue are being analyzed by an expert on public procurement, Darko Janevski.<br /><br />He concludes that certain bidders, who request to inspect documents included in the offers of applicants, can and should carry out an inspection.<br /><br />In this issue of the monthly report, we once again hope to deal with issues that are significant in your work and stimulating enough to make you think and act in enabling enhanced transparency and accountability of your actions.<br /><br /><a href=\"../images/stories/mak_br11_ang_final.pdf\">The eleventh MAK issue can be found here</a></p>', 'b186531444b6a525805a1391336af87e', '', '2012-08-05 11:03:10', 62, 1),

The  World Football Federation had to suspend two of its members from the top  management after it was revealed that they sold their votes during the  process of selecting the location for the next football world  championship. Stimulated by the more frequent corruption scandals on its  territory, Switzerland, the country in which many world organizations  have their headquarters, announced stricter anti-corruption regulations.  In Kosovo, the government had to cancel the agreement with one US  company, which was selected through direct negotiation without the  participation of other companies, but only after the affair was  disclosed by the media. The world scientists have detected and found  evidence to support the claims of the relatedness of corruption with  other societal phenomena in the country, such as the level of economic  development, respect of human rights and claim that corruption is  symptom of deep economic and social diseases in the society.</p>\r\n<p>In this issue of the  monthly newsletter, we present the sections on anticorruption and public  procurement from the latest European Commission’s Progress Report for  Macedonia. In both these areas, the EC has observed certain progress,  emphasizing that the corruption is wide spread and continues to pose a  serious problem. In terms of the public procurement, the observations  from last year still apply. However, the special focus this year is  placed on the lack of capacity of the public administration in this area  and the need for strengthening the system of legal remedies in public  procurement.</p>\r\n<p>In addition, we report  the address of the President of the Council of Europe\'s Group of States  against Corruption (GRECO), Drago Kos, on the corruption in public  procurement at the Public Procurement Conference held in Skopje in  October. He suggests that for combating corruption in public procurement  the good law meeting the requirements of the European Union directives  is needed, but not sufficient for protecting the public funds from  corruption. According to Kos, anti-corruption specialists should be  involved in the public procurement in order to analyze the existing  legislation from the aspect of combating corruption. Kos recommends to  those making decisions about public finances to be as careful and  responsible as when they are making decisions about their personal  finances. We also present few of the numerous media reports published  about the conference.</p>\r\n<p>As the criminal becomes  more organized and widespread, spilling over the boundaries of a state,  even a region, it is necessary for the investigative reporters to  become more organized. However, due to various reasons, it seems this  type of journalism is facing difficult days. Therefore, the  investigative reporters, non-governmental organizations and donors that  support these networks from Moldova, Romania, Ukraine, Czech  Republic,  Poland, Bulgaria, Serbia and Macedonia met this November in Chisinau in  Moldova, sharing their experiences and discussing the future  possibilities for enhancing the cross-boundary cooperation in  investigative reporting.</p>\r\n<p>We hope that with this  issue of the monthly newsletter by providing you diverse topics we will  encourage you to think of taking measures for reducing the corruption in  our society, which according to the scientists is interrelated and  depends on many factors in the society.</p>\r\n<p><a href=\"../images/stories/mak_br10_ang_final.pdf\" title=\"The tenth MAK issue can be found here\"> </a><a href=\"../images/stories/mak_br10_ang_final.pdf\">The tenth MAK issue can be found here</a></p>', '023b990ce0a8c5108cc123c7d6106a42', '', '2012-08-05 11:01:38', 62, 1),

(755, 1, 115, 'content', 'introtext', '<p>In this issue<br /><br />Corruption in the private sector and its combating is an increasingly debated topic worldwide, a topic that was tackled in one of the prior issues of the monthly newsletter. Faced with a corruption scandal in the United States following a revelation that bribes worth millions of dollars were paid to governments all over the world in order to get public procurement agreements, renowned car company Daimler will now open a special executive post focusing on the company’s observance of laws and business ethic in its operations.<br /><br />In Croatia, the country’s customs head and, until recently, the ruling party’s treasurer has been detained under the suspicion that he made state institutions hire a PR company without conducting a public procurement procedure.<br /><br />In neighboring Serbia, an Internet news agency has published a so-called corruption pricelist, i.e. a list of public services and bribes paid for their obtaining. Data have been taken from citizens’ input at the recently opened e-portal for reporting of corruption cases “Pištaljka“ (Whistle). According to this pricelist, completing studies without taking exams costs EUR 16,000 of bribes, to legalise a house – EUR 20,000, to employ a doctor – up to EUR 8,000. The list shows that doctors are most corrupt, with economists claiming the economic crisis increases corruption.<br /><br />On 28 September the world marked the day for free access to public information, or the so-called “International Right to Know Day“. This is an occasion for analysis of how much Macedonia abides by international standards for free access to public information. The analysis also offers several specific suggestions for solutions that can be applied in our country for the purpose of more comprehensive achievement of this civil right, which is one of the most essential.<br /><br />Let\'s refer to one more analysis – complaints in the public procurements process. The main remark resulting from this analysis is that decisions of the State Commission for Public Procurements\' Complaints regarding complete annulment of proceedings is on the rise, which demonstrates increase of violations and abuses of the Law on Public Procurements by the contracting parties. In almost half of the accepted complaints by economic operators, the State Commission for Public Procurements\' Complaints passed decisions for annulment of procedures, which is the case when serious violations of the Law on Public Procurements are established.<br /><br />Faced with a large number of petitions from citizens in the field of urbanism and construction, the State Commission for Public Procurements\' Complaints decided at the beginning of October to arrange a public debate with representatives of all parties concerned, in order to produce conclusions and recommendations for reduction of corruption in this field. These recommendations involve some recommendations that the Center for Civil Communications promoted several years ago.<br /><br />Finally, we are presenting several cartoons on topic corruption, created for our monthly by two eminent domestic cartoonists, Jordan Pop Iliev and Petar Jankov.<br /><a href=\"../images/stories/mak_br9_ang_final.pdf\"><br />The ninth MAK issue can be found here</a></p>', '79f4ef2936da810ecbb10a82b2e5f44d', '', '2012-08-05 10:59:54', 62, 1),

They are accused of corruption in approving the planning permits and selling state owned land in Marbella, a jet-set tourist resort in the south of Spain. The Spanish Prosecutor’s Office needed three years to gather enough evidence and start this big-time corruption trial, which is expected to last about a year.<br /><br />Over the Atlantic, Mexico\'s federal police agency has fired nearly 10 percent of its force this year for failing checks designed to detect possible corruption, a major obstacle in the country\'s battle against increasingly brutal drug gangs. Mexico\'s federal police are required to undergo periodic lie detector, psychological and drug examinations, and the government routinely investigates their finances and personal life. The sacking came as a result of President Felipe Calderon’s all-out war against the drug cartels, which has left some 28,000 people dead since he came to power in December 2006.<br /><br />In Bosnia and Herzegovina – EU High Representative openly said the corruption has entered all pores of the society and called on the citizens to take this fact into account at the next voting.<br /><br />In addition, we also provide journalistic analysis of the failure of Macedonian authorities to fully utilize the domestic and international funds and donations for reconstruction of schools, pinpointed in the latest auditing report of the Ministry of Education and Science.<br /><br />We also present the main remarks to the public procurement process in the country, registered in the public procurement monitoring which was conducted by the Center for Civil Communications in the past two years. The monitoring not only highlights the weaknesses and possible abuses in the public procurement, but also serves as a basis for developing recommendations for improving the situation. The recommendations are then disseminated to all competent institutions in the country.<br /><br />Corruption is also a major problem in neighboring Kosovo, where the analysts are now focused on the announced sale of the state telecommunication operator. The main problem lies in the selection of consulting company, which in the country of its origin is under governmental supervision for previously detected irregularities.<br /><br />Working teams comprised of mayors in four municipalities in eastern Macedonia work on implementing the recommendations for improving the transparency, accountability and responsibility of their work and increasing the participation of citizens in decision making process in the local communities.<br /><br />At the end of this issue, you will find a bricolage of posters from anti-corruption campaigns from several countries in the world. Although they all have the common denominator – preventing corruption, the illustrations depict the specific features of the fight against corruption in these countries.

They have launched a special web portal that offers opportunity to citizens to report corruption, namely to blow the whistle, while journalists engaged in this project will further investigate these reports and alarm the public. Although active for less than two months the portal ‘pistaljka.rs’ has already achieved results.<br /><br />Very often the United Nations (UN) and its senior officials are also part of corruption scandals or at least of such allegations. The head of internal audit department resigned, accusing the UN Secretary General for lack of transparency and accountability.<br /><br />In neighboring Kosovo one of the serious corruption affairs resulted in a detention of the National Bank governor, while in Bulgaria the leader of ethnic Turks living in this country will go on trial over possible conflict of interests during his service within the mandate of the previous government.<br /><br />Corruption has been flourishing in the Western Balkan countries. Latest reports of relevant institutions say the combat against corruption in the Balkan countries is only declarative, thus presenting an obstacle on their road to the European Union membership. On this occasion our regular analysts Vanja Mihajlova gives a cross section of combating the corruption in the neighboring countries in an attempt to answer the question whether they are willing to deal with this problem.<br /><br />In the meantime, the third Round Evaluation Report on Macedonia of the Council of Europe’s Group of States against Corruption (GRECO) notifies lack of effective application of the party funding regulations  and urges for certain legal improvements in terms of corruption criminalization. The report focuses on two significant topics: criminalization of the corruption and transparency in funding of the political parties, and offers 13 recommendations for improving the situation.<br /><br />The issue also reviews the work of the Centers for Citizens in Macedonia, set up in four municipalities in the eastern part of the country to monitor and improve the work of local administration. The idea is for citizens to freely file their remarks, suggestions for the functioning of the local administration, which afterwards are being sent to the local government units, and their actions upon them have been constantly monitored. This issue gives more detailed review about the functioning of the centers in Stip and Vinica.<br /><br />Finally, we offer you a story from India about a non-governmental organization, which by concrete numbers and analyses, shows how corruption has been ‘eating’ the meals of schoolchildren in one of the poorest countries in the world. Namely, sacks of rice for the students’ meals come down from 50 to 20-30 kg on their road to the schools. The difference is actually the price of corruption.<br /><br />Once again we hope that the information and analyses will stimulate you to take concrete steps in favor of consistent application of the principles of ‘good governance’ and serve you as guidelines to more transparent, responsible working.<br /><br /><a href=\"../images/stories/mak_br7_ang_final.pdf\">The seventh MAK issue can be found here</a></p>', '53a4e6a9fd38d030ea15013da775fb94', '', '2012-08-05 10:56:11', 62, 1),

Yale University Professor Susan Rose-Ackerman, one of the leading experts in corruption, recommends what one government should do in order to be considered anti-corruptive. PhD Rose- Ackerman, who in particular studies the link between corruption and economic development and having substantial experience with post-communist countries, recommends establishing of an anti-corruption alliance, comprised of the NGO sector, businessmen, administration and politicians.<br /><br />This summer is marked by another significant event related to the global combat against corruption. G-20 tabled the corruption on its last summit in Canada and set up a group that would fight this evil.<br /><br />In the neighborhood, a poll of the ‘Gallup’ agency shows that up to 90 percent of respondents consider that business climate has plunged deeply into corruption, while 80 percent believe for the judiciary to be one of the main strongholds of the corruption.<br /><br />In our regular analyses, we refer to the role of whistleblowers in corruption and organized crime. While this instrument is close to non-functional in our country, it has been frequently used in the United States and developed Asian countries. Two moments are considered vital for the functioning of whistle-blowing: institutions to really do something after being informed on corruptive activity and offer serious protection to good-will people who blow the whistle.<br /><br />From Macedonia this issue brings an article on changes to the Law on Public Procurement, in particular the provisions that stirred up public fury-the possibility for the contracting bodies to delay the payment of public procurements for unlimited period.<br /><br />Finally, we publish the results of our large poll, conducted in public procurements sectors of 138 companies, asking the employees about their experience with and problems they have been facing in the public procurement process. Unclear tender documentation and technical specification is the main problem for over half of the companies. High 43 percent of the companies have difficulties to collect their money from state institutions for already delivered goods and services.<br /><br />This problem is expected to become more serious in the future as the legal changes will enable state institutions further postponing of their payment.<br /><br />We hope for these articles to also contribute to better understanding, applying of the principles of good governance and reducing the misdemeanors that derive from dishonest and illegal work.<br /><br />We also wish to once again extend our gratitude for sending your answers to our poll for advancing this newsletter, giving as additional impetus to offer richer in contents issues in the future.<br /><br /><a href=\"../images/stories/mak_br6_ang_final.pdf\">The sixth MAK issue can be found here</a></p>', 'e89e27ed7af1e2dc9ebf97fbd93e83dc', '', '2012-08-05 10:53:58', 62, 1),

First of all we wish to thank to all of those who responded to our poll by which we wish to hear how satisfied you are with our newsletter and collect your proposals, suggestions for its further development. We are also reminding and kindly asking those who failed to respond, to do that as soon as possible, as your opinions are of vital importance for an improvement of our performance. We shall present your proposals and suggestions in the next issue. We are now carefully reviewing your ideas to be able to immediately apply them in the next issues’ articles.<br /><br />In this issue we are presenting two similar cases for fining corruption acts in two countries in different part of the world that have different social structure and believes. The United States and China have punished prominent citizens for their involvement in corruption activities. In both countries, the penalties are considered to be a message to the societies about the hard stand of the authorities against the crime. In neighboring Greece, after a series of mass, violent protests, the government had to promise it would cleanse up the corruption in politics and restore public trust.<br /><br />Our associate, anti-corruption expert Mihajlova, writes about the need of larger transparency of the budget, as a crucial instrument for participation of citizens and democratic control of the procedure for approving the budget and spending the funds. In this regard the experiences of two countries form different parts of the world also show that the calls for open budget substantially reduce the corruption and enhance the accountability of public servants.<br /><br />Furthermore, experts in criminal law analyze a new incrimination of the Criminal Code on abusing the public call for granting a contract on public purchase, which is foreseen to become a serious punitive act that requires harsh penalty, as it is an attack not only on certain individuals, but also on the social community.<br /><br />This issue also tackles the bribe many international companies have been paying as a price to run business in certain countries. After several large corruption scandals, now the very same international companies are opposing any form of bribe.<br /><br />We hope that the contents of this issue will offer you more detailed information on the principles of honest, responsible performing and serve to all of us as a guideline in our own work.<br /><br /><a href=\"../images/stories/mak_br5_ang_final.pdf\">The fifth MAK issue can be found here</a></p>', '0fec54d846ee95ba864a9ed3853db8e8', '', '2012-08-05 10:52:28', 62, 1),

Croatia is still the role model of countering the corruption, and that the fight will continue was jointly announced by the new leaders, President Josipovic and Prime Minister Kosor. Under suspicion of involvement in the corruption scandal with the food giant “Podravka”, the police arrested the deputy prime minister, Davor Polancec. He is the highest ranking officers suspected of and arrested for corruption.<br /><br />The main topic in this issue is the conflict of interest, which in its nature is not a corruption, but can definitely become one if it is not recognized, prevented and managed properly. The analysis provides specific solutions and examples for fighting against the conflict of interests.<br /><br />In March, the European Union has published the Progress Reports for Romania and Bulgaria, where it openly and directly requested from the two countries to speed up the fight against corruption and organized crime. Bulgaria was warned of showing “weak results”, while Romania that “it failed to keep up the pace” in countering the criminal and corruption.<br /><br />At the end of this edition of the newsletter, we analyze the introduction of electronic systems in providing governmental services via the Internet, a process aimed at reducing the corruption. However, this system must entail comprehensive reforms and not just copying part of the paper procedure and turning it into digital.<br /><br />We truly believe that our offer will keep your attention and will contribute for raising the awareness of the negative consequences of corruption and the need for more intensive fight against it.<br /><a href=\"https://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&amp;pid=explorer&amp;chrome=true&amp;srcid=1fUaaue8hWwPPhCLV2ftd6wPwllsUpJhofWCCc0NS9MCFoC6GORmSm5MQZTf6&amp;hl=en\"><br />The third MAK issue can be found here</a></p>', '7816d39203d34c7b39970aada24a8292', '', '2012-08-05 10:48:22', 62, 1),

Still, six years after the start of the process, surveys show that citizens remain unsatisfied with the manner in which the local self-government deals with their problems and how it organizes the life and work of local communities.<br /><br />In majority of municipalities in the country, the citizens are not participating sufficiently in the decision making processes and creation of local policies, while local authorities are not sufficiently transparent, accountable and responsible in their work. In addition, the citizens are not well informed about the role and importance of municipal administrations in local communities.  Therefore, there is a need to provide assistance to the municipal administrations to develop and implement more efficient mechanisms for more transparent, accountable and responsible work, and instruments that will allow for and stimulate regular participation of citizens, local business communities and non-governmental organisations in decision making process and creation of local policies. On the other hand, there are municipalities that implement certain successful practices that yield results and serve as positive example for the other municipal administrations.  <br /><br />For more than a year, three Macedonian nongovernmental associations – the NGO Infocentre, the Centre for Civic Communications and EHO, with the support by USAID, work to increase the mutual confidence and cooperation between citizens, business people, civic organisations and local authorities in Macedonia, through introduction of instruments to ensure more transparent, accountable and responsible operations of local self-governments; encouragement of increased participation of citizens in local decision-making processes, and exchange of good practices between local administrations in the country.</p>', '1c3b4a890895431a09a71c968a0534bc', '', '2012-06-07 15:00:07', 63, 1),

Our research has shown that the corruption in this area reaches the highest echelons of the local and central government.

The research has shown that the broad area for misuse of the health care sector is mainly due to the lack of clear procedures for the supplies, the exceptionally weak control of the manner in which the money of the public health users is spent, the misuse of the position that health and human life are at stake, as well as the great solidarity among the doctors and concealing the corruption, i.e. viewing it as a recompense for the low salaries as opposed to the high expertise.

This issue provides a deeper insight in the  situation in Kosovo. The anti-corruption agency in Kosovo has filed  charges against 159 officers on suspicion of corruption. However, the  international analysts assess that the corruption in Kosovo is still  highly dominant and the fight against corruption has still not yielded  any visible results.</p>\r\n<p>We also provide a comprehensive analysis conducted  by the Balkan Investigative Reporting Network, investigating the  loopholes in the health institutions in Kosovo. A US researcher  identifies the relation between the level of corruption in one country  with the trust of the people in the institutions and other people. In  China, however, due to the limited number of scientific and research  work that can be published in the course of one year, a million dollar  worth illegal business with these works has been discovered.</p>\r\n<p>Anti-corruption expert Vanja Mihajlova is analyzing  the cost and consequences of corruption on the economy. In addition,  you have the exclusive opportunity to read the findings from the  research, exploring the satisfaction of citizens, businessmen and  representatives of the civil society organizations from the work of  municipalities in Eastern Macedonia. Furthermore, the survey measures  the degree of involvement of local community in the process of decision  making in the municipalities. The findings will serve as a basis for  developing recommendations on undertaking measures for overcoming the  established weaknesses and promoting the work of local authorities. At  the end, we offer an interesting medley of billboards used in the  anti-corruption campaigns throughout the world.

Instead of the quality of a bid, some tenders mainly appraise the experience of the bidding companies. </li>\r\n<li>In the third quarter of 2012, 210 contracts amounting to 14 million euros were concluded through non-transparent negotiating procedures without publishing a call for bids. Overall, in the first nine months of 2012, the value of such contracts amounted to approximately 32 million euros. </li>\r\n<li> A comparative analysis of the Macedonian legislation and seven European countries indicates that no other country creates so-called ”black lists” of bidders that are banned from participating in tender processes for a given time period (1 to 5 years) for activating  bank guarantees. </li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<p><a href=\"images/stories/15_eng.pdf\">The monitoring report </a>is available on-line at <a href=\"undefined/\">www.ccc.org.mk</a>.  For further information please contact the Centre for Civil Communications at (02) 3213-513 or at <a href=\"mailto:center@ccc.org.mk\">center@ccc.org.mk</a>.</p>\r\n<p><strong> </strong></p>\r\n<hr class=\"system-pagebreak\" />\r\n<p><strong> NOTE TO EDITORS:</strong><strong> </strong></p>\r\n<p> </p>\r\n<p>The USAID Civil Society Project is a two and a half-year project financed by USAID and implemented by the Foundation Open Society - Macedonia in partnership with: the Center for Civil Communications; Youth Educational Forum; Reactor - Research in Action; and Forum - Center for Strategic Research and Documentation.</p>\r\n<p>The American people, through USAID, have invested over $500 million in Macedonia since 1993.

In addition, in one out of every four e-auctions that were conducted, the opening bid was not reduced from the starting price. Thus, the effect of budget savings was not realized in most of the procurements. This is a direct consequence of limiting tender competition by setting unreasonably burdensome bidding criteria for companies. </span></li>\r\n<li><span style=\"font-size: small;\">The share of annulled tenders in the last three months of 2012 was very high: 23.4% at the national level. Over the past four years, the percentage of annulments was highest in 2012 at 24.2%, mainly due to the low number of bids received on tenders.</span></li>\r\n<li><span style=\"font-size: small;\">In the fourth quarter of 2012, a total of 408 contracts were made in negotiated procedures without prior publication of a contract notice, with an approximate value of 22 million Euros. Annually, around 65 million Euros have been spent through this procedure. The main reason for the increasing number of such contracts, which has reached the highest level of the last four years, is the inability to schedule an e-auction due to insufficient competition. </span></li>\r\n<li><span style=\"font-size: small;\">At the top of the ten largest public procurement contracts in 2012 is that of “ELEM,” the State company for production of electricity, in the amount of 53.3 million Euros for excavating coal and inter-layer spoil. </span></li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\">The monitoring report is available <a href=\"images/stories/16_eng.pdf\">here</a>.

Key findings include:</p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Macedonia is among a handful of countries in the world whose Law on      Public Procurement does not stipulate sanctions for violations made to      legal provisions in effect, despite numerous cases of violations      identified in the practice. This conclusion is based on the comparison of      Macedonian legislation with relevant laws adopted and implemented in 8      European countries. </li>\r\n<li>From the monitored sample, every fourth public procurement contract      was signed in a tender procedure with only one bidding company. With the      lack of competition among companies, there are no guarantees that public      funds are spent for quality goods and services, and are offered at      favorable competitive prices. </li>\r\n<li>Companies are denied the right to demonstrate past performance      acquired through joint ventures. According to the State Commission for      Public Procurement Appeals’ Assessment, companies may enter into joint      ventures in order to demonstrate relevant capacity for contract      performance, but not for the purpose of demonstrating past performance.      This implies another risk of high concentration of public procurement      performance among a small group of big companies. </li>\r\n<li>Tender annulments are exceptionally high in number and account for      26.6%. </li>\r\n<li>In the first quarter of 2013, funds in the amount of 11 million      Euros were contracted through negotiation without a prior announcement of      call for bids.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<p>This monitoring report is available <a href=\"images/stories/17_eng.pdf\">here</a>.

Key findings include:</p>\r\n<p>Almost one third of tender procedures from the monitoring sample, have been completed with awarding the procurement contract to the single bidding company that participated therein. In such cases, the tender procedure is not completed with the organization of electronic competition for reduction of initially bided prices, i.e. with the so called e-auction. On the account of this, tender procedures with one bidder that has been awarded the contract imply a major risk of signing the procurement contract under prices higher than the actual market prices.</p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Some contracting authorities continue to use bid-evaluation elements that do not guarantee objective selection of the most favourable bid. Cases have been noted where the contracting authorities allocated points to the bidding companies with whom they have signed procurement contracts in the past, as well as cases in which there is no clear methodology on point-ranking of the quality element. </li>\r\n<li>In the third quarter of 2013, the value of contracts signed by means of negotiation procedure without prior announcement of call for bids amounts to 21.3 million EUR and represents an increase by 52% compared to same period last year. In accumulative terms, procurement contracts signed in this manner in the first 9 months of 2013 amount to a total of 47.7 million EUR.</li>\r\n<li>In the third quarter of 2013, every fourth tender procedure was unsuccessful (25.7%). The most frequently indicated reason for tender annulment is the fact that the contracting authority did not receive any acceptable or adequate bids. </li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<p><a href=\"images/stories/e19.pdf\">This Report</a> is available at <a href=\"undefined/\">www.ccc.org.mk</a>.

In the first semester of 2014, SCPPA was presented with a total of 330 appeals, accounting for an increase by 13.4% compared to the same period last year. Also, for the first time in several years, high share of decisions taken by SCPPA imply approval of appeals.</span></li>\r\n<li>Significant share of bids submitted in tender procedures do not reach the bid-evaluation stage. In that, reasons indicated for rejection of bids include administrative shortcomings of bids submitted and failure to fulfil requirements defined in relevant tender documents (eligibility criteria and terms and conditions defined in tender specifications).</li>\r\n<li>Recently adopted law amendments in effect from January 2014 have yield expected results in reducing the share of contracts signed by means of negotiation procedure without previously announced call for bids, but are still ineffective in terms of reduced number of tender annulments. In the second quarter of 2014, the total values of direct contracts accounts for 10.5 million EUR, and 22.4% of all announced tenders were annulled.</li>\r\n<li><span style=\"line-height: 1.3em;\"> </span><span style=\"line-height: 1.3em;\">Competition is still on unsatisfactory level.

Some state institutions either do not publish tender data or publish them late, while others do not disclose information requested by means of FOI applications.</span></p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\">- Several months (October-December 2013) before legal provisions on mandatory publication of tender documents enter in effect (from January 2014), including legal provisions whereby defining eligibility criteria for tender participation becomes difficult and liable to sanctions (from May 2014), 45% of tender procedures monitored have not published their relevant tender documents, while as high as 60% of them included high eligibility criteria for tender participation.</span></p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\">- Tender annulments continue to create problems in the field of public procurements. In this monitoring period as well, the share of annulled tender procedures ranges around the average of 15% calculated for local level public procurements.</span></p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\">- Deadline on selection decision-taking is complied with, but signing of procurement contracts is postponed.</span></p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\">The Report is available <a href=\"images/stories/ml4e.pdf\">here</a>.

Key conclusions of the survey are:</p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Main problems companies face in public procurement procedures include: ample scope of documents required for participation in tender procedures, late collection of receivables for implemented procurement contracts and definition of eligibility criteria for participation in tender procedures that favour particular bidders.</li>\r\n<li>Companies that have been awarded procurement contracts, in average, wait for six months to collect their receivables related to the contract performance.</li>\r\n<li>Dominant share of surveyed companies believe that e-auctions result in attainment of unrealistically low prices, whereby quality is disregarded on the account of procurement prices.</li>\r\n<li>High costs related to and distrust in appeal procedures are main reasons on whose account 93% of surveyed companies rarely or never motion appeals against public procurement procedures.</li>\r\n<li>On the scale from 1 (negative) to 5 (excellent), companies assess the overall process on public procurements in the country with 2.86, which implies an insignificant improvement compared to 2012 assessment of 2.84. </li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<p>This report is available <a href=\"https://www.dropbox.com/s/x7f9xkjwye5n5s5/23_izvestaj_EN_12.11.2014.pdf?dl=0\">here</a>.

Key findings include:</p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Long-awaited and, for the companies, highly-desired novelty in public procurements defined as mandatory publication of the procurement’s estimated value, seems to be a hot potato for the contracting authorities which, most of them, do not know how to handle. Notably, there are numerous examples of tender procedures that have raised certain problems in terms of their implementation, with reasons thereof stemming from the procurement’s estimated value. </li>\r\n<li>Series of changes made to the legislation on public procurements, at least in the first months of their application, have not resulted in increased competition in tender procedures on local level. In the monitoring sample, the average competition accounted for 2.7 bidders per procedure, while 38% of monitored tender procedures included one or no bid. </li>\r\n<li>After a two-year period in which the share of annulled tender procedures has been stabilized at around 15%, annulment of tender procedures on local level is again on the rise and accounts for 20%. Contrary to practices observed in the past when the main ground indicated for tender annulment was absence of bids, nowadays the main reason implies unfavourable prices. </li>\r\n<li>Average duration of public procurement procedures from the monitoring sample, from announcement of procurement notice to contract signing, accounts for 33 days and implies small improvement compared to the previous period. </li>\r\n<li>In some public procurement procedures, the subject is specified in such great details that it literally refers to specific product, although such practices are prohibited and limited by the Law, and have been continuously indicated to as poor practices that favour certain bidding companies.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<p>This Report is available <a href=\"https://www.dropbox.com/s/zxf2ptufm9uoz18/monitoring_PP_on_local_level_5.pdf?dl=0\">here</a>.

In per capita terms, 2013 differences between the municipalities are more modest compared to 2012 when they ranged from 2 EUR to 412 EUR per capita. </li>\r\n<li>The Municipality of Centar lost last year’s primacy when it was the absolute winner both, in terms of total value of public procurements and per capita value of public procurements. </li>\r\n<li>Share of public procurements in the municipalities’ 2013 budgets ranges from 1.8% to 77.7%. Differences observed under this parameter are indicative of great discrepancies among the municipalities.</li>\r\n<li>Exceptionally small per capita value of public procurements and small share of public procurements in municipality’s budget were observed in two big municipalities: Tetovo (8 EUR per capita) and Kumanovo (7 EUR per capita).</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<p>This Report is available <a href=\"https://www.dropbox.com/s/1zzkcha30zzffou/monitoring_PP_on_local_level_6.pdf?dl=0\">here</a>.

Key findings related to <strong>monitoring of public procurements </strong>include:</p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>In the first months of its operation, the Council of Public Procurements increased the administrative burden in implementation of tender procedures, but not the competition therein. The number of bidding companies per tender procedure in the second half of 2014 is reduced, even when compared to the first half of the year. </li>\r\n<li>In the second half of 2014, the Council of Public Procurements was addressed with as many as 5,725 applications for approval concerning implementation of tender procedures. State institutions incurred a cost of around 600,000 EUR for requesting such approvals. </li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>All tender procedures from the monitoring sample      applied the selection criterion defined as “lowest prices”. Low prices, which      during some e-auctions result in absurdly low levels, bring under question      the quality of public procurements. </li>\r\n<li>Mandatory      approval from the Council of Public Procurements for organization of      negotiation procedures without prior announcement of call for bids has      reduced the number of these non-transparent procurement procedures. Annual      amount of procurement contracts awarded in this manner reached 56 million      EUR.</li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Contracting authorities joined the appeal process in the field of      public procurements. 109 from the total of 612 appeals lodged to the State      Commission on Public Procurement Appeals in the course of 2014 were      motioned by institutions implementing tender procedures and contest      decisions taken by the Council of Public Procurements. With only 503      appeals lodged by companies in the course of 2014, the multiannual trend      on reduced number of appeals motioned by companies in front of the State      Commission is continuing. </li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<p>This Report is available <a href=\"images/stories/24e.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">here.</a> For more information, please contact the Centre for Civil Communications on tel.

(1092, 1, 259, 'content', 'introtext', '<p>The Center for Civil Communications has published the second, updated issue of the “<a href=\"images/stories/p2015e.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Recommendations for Easier Access of Microenterprises to Public Procurements</a>”.</p>\r\n<p>Recommendations put forward in this document are not aimed to  change the legislation; on the contrary, they aim to promote existing  rules that govern public procurements which, if adequately implemented  in the practice, will contribute to attainment of the overall goal:  easier access of small- and microenterprises to the public procurement  market and revival of local economies throughout the country.</p>\r\n<p>The recommendations were first published two years ago, in February 2013.First and foremost, recommendations are drafted on the basis of insights obtained as part of regular monitoring of public procurements in the Republic of Macedonia, analysis of relevant national legislation on public procurements in Macedonia, Code of Best Practices in Opening Public Procurements for Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises published by the European Commission, as well as comprehensive research of practices applied by contracting authorities and experiences of microenterprises in relation to public procurements organized in the country.</p>\r\n<p>All these demonstrated insufficient participation in public procurements, especially in terms of the value of tender procedures awarded to small- and microenterprises. Presence of microenterprises on the public procurement market is low and disproportional to the total number of such enterprises, their importance and their role in the local communities, but also in the overall economy. Research studies showed that these enterprises are facing lack of information about public procurements, ignorance of relevant legislation and manner in which public procurements are implemented, insufficient trust in pubic procurements, as well as series of administrative and other barriers in the practice related to implementation of public procurements.</p>\r\n<p>Having considered this problem, several years ago the European Union proposed a package of recommendations addressed to contracting authorities at EU level, including specific measures that should be taken with a view to enable easier access to public procurements for smaller enterprises. All these constituted another reason for taking specific measures aimed at easier access of microenterprises to public procurements in Macedonia, with actions targeting both sides. On one side, training session, regular information dissemination, day-to-day assistance and consultations for preparation of bids and participation in tender procedures were provided for the purpose of capacity-building for microenterprises to enter the public procurement market, while, on the other hand, addressing contracting authorities with recommendations and workshops for the purpose of reducing administrative and other barriers to greater participation of microenterprises in public procurements.</p>\r\n<p>In the meantime, in 2014 the EU reformed its regulations on public procurements, in particular by complementing its Directives on Public Procurements, primarily with provisions that imply easier access of small- and microenterprises to public procurements, thereby somehow translating their previously issued recommendations into legal solutions.</p>\r\n<p>In Macedonia as well, a series of thorough changes have been made to the relevant legislation on public procurements. The basic Law on Public Procurements was subject to amendments on several occasions, inter alia, with a series of provisions from recommendations put forwards with a view to enable easier access of microenterprises to public procurements. For example, those recommendations included free-of-charge publication of tender documents together with procurement notices, recommendation on avoiding requirements on bank guarantees for bids submitted in procurement procedures within the lowest value brackets and part of the recommendation on setting proportional eligibility criteria for tender participation.</p>\r\n<p>In addition, monitoring the implementation of recommendations on the part of contracting authorities revealed certain improvements in regard to implementation of other recommendations (for example, setting reasonable deadlines for companies to prepare and submit their bids), but there is still room for further improvements aimed at enabling greater participation of small- and microenterprises in public procurements, following the example set by EU member-states and in compliance with indications made by microenterprises themselves.</p>\r\n<p>This has imposed the need to revise previously drafted recommendations and the need to amend and update recommendations that have already become legal obligations, notably for the purpose of reaffirming enforcement of recommendations that have not been adherently implemented on the part of contracting authorities and for the purpose of complementing them with a new set of recommendations that emerged as necessary in the analysis of relevant legislation and practices related to implementation of public procurements.</p>\r\n<p>Recommendations are structured in the following manner:</p>\r\n<p>1. Expected results from recommendation’s implementation in the practice, both on the part of microenterprises and on the part of contracting authorities.</p>\r\n<p>2. Reference to specific provisions from the relevant legislation (LPP or bylaws) that enable implementation of recommendations, i.e. confirm they are legally based.</p>\r\n<p>3. Elaboration of recommendations by means of providing description of the problem, i.e. the issue addressed by the recommendation in question, manner in which the recommendation should be implemented in the practice and benefits from its implementation.</p>\r\n<p>This document and recommendations contained therein are primarily addressed to contracting authorities. Nevertheless, they should be made due consideration of and should be applied also by microenterprises, as some recommendations are addressing them directly.</p>\r\n<p>Recommendations have been drafted and proposed as part of USAID’s Project on Access of Microenterprises to Public Procurements, whose overall goal is to facilitate access of small- and microenterprises to the public procurement market, thus contributing to their sustainable development and better utilization of their potentials for job-creation, growth and innovations. On the other hand, the project should enable contracting authorities to attain lower prices and better quality of their respective public procurements. The project is implemented in 35 municipalities in the East, Vardar, North-East and South East regions.</p>', 'f3877f3aac04babef8a288ef18ebfe5e', '', '2015-05-14 14:18:43', 64, 1),

Although established for the purpose of increasing competition, the      Council of Public Procurements has failed to yield any results. </li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>In the first six months of this year, the Council of Public Procurements was presented with 10,362 applications for approval, costing the institutions as much as 74.3 million MKD, i.e. 1.2 million EUR. </li>\r\n<li>Introduced controls have disciplined the institutions and forced them to reduce their use of non-transparent negotiation procedures without prior announcement of call for bids. In the first half of 2015, public funds spent by means of this type of contracts amounted to around 11.5 million EUR and are by 61.4% lower compared to the same period last year. </li>\r\n<li>In the first half of 2015, 18.5% of all tender procedures announced were annulled. This marked a modest decrease in the number of tender annulments compared to the previous monitoring periods. </li>\r\n<li>In the first half of this year, companies submitted the lowest number of appeals recorded in the last several years. The State Commission on Public Procurement Appeals was presented with 252 appeals in total, which is by 23.6% lower compared to the same period last year. More than half of appeals lodged have been submitted by companies contesting the selection decision on the most favourable bid in the tender procedure. </li>\r\n</ul>\r\n<p>This Report is available <a href=\"images/stories/25a.pdf\">here</a>.

In average, public procurements from the monitoring sample were marked by participation of 2.4 bidding companies, while as high as 57% of tender procedures monitored were not presented with a single bid or were presented with only one bid.</p>\r\n<p>-          Although they are law-mandated for all tender procedures, e-auctions were organized in only 53% of monitored procurement procedures. Low competition in tender procedures and “lowest price” defined as the single criterion for contract awarding would continue to deepen the problem related to non-organization of electronic auctions, envisaged as means for reduction of initially bided prices.</p>\r\n<p>-          The number of annulled tender procedures in the monitoring sample maintained its high share of 20% and was marked by an increase compared to tendencies observed in the past one to two years, when it amounted to around 15%. The main reason indicated for tender annulment remains the statement that bidding companies have offered prices that are more unfavourable than those anticipated or planned by the contracting authority.</p>\r\n<p>-          Inadequacy of “lowest price” defined as the only contract-awarding criterion is the biggest problem faced by companies participating in tender procedures organized and implemented on local level. More than half of companies surveyed are also facing the problem of late payment for public procurement contract performance.</p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12.16px; line-height: 1.3em;\">This Report is available </span><a href=\"images/stories/le7.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"font-size: 12.16px; line-height: 1.3em;\">here</a><span style=\"font-size: 12.16px; line-height: 1.3em;\">.
