At the meeting two AmCham’s position papers were presented “Improvement of the Legal Protection System in Public Procurement” and “Public Procurement Training”.

AmCham representatives stressed the need for a stronger role of institutions in providing legal protection in public procurement, including the State Attorney's Office of the Republic of Croatia, the High Administrative Court of the Republic of Croatia, the State Commission for Control of Public Procurement Procedures and the Ministry of Economy and Sustainable Development.

In the part of the training, they stated that the existing certification system should not be abolished, but gradation of acquired knowledge is necessary since there are oscillations in the quality of educational programs as well as the knowledge of people within the system.

Ms. Maja Kuhar welcomed AmCham's recommendations and stated that the views of the Commission and AmCham largely overlapped. It was agreed to continue cooperation in order to work together to strengthen the functioning of the public procurement system in Croatia.

AmCham representatives included Andrea Doko Jelušić, Executive Director, Jelena Markulin, Vice-Chair of the Public Procurement Committee, Ema Menđušić Škugor and Aleksandar Skočić Committee members, and Dražen Malbašić, Policy Manager.
