Issues Concern: Entitlement to Honoraria
Details
Whether Bids and Awards Committee (BAC) members are entitled to receive honoraria even if there is a failure of bidding.
Section 4 (Rationale) of BC No. 2004-5A clearly provides that “[p]ropriety dictates that only persons who have successfully completed their tasks or participated in accomplished activities ought to be compensatedâ€. Similarly, Section 5.4 states that the honoraria shall be paid only upon the successful completion of each procurement project.
