I would like to know which Act or regulation of the Government the Minister intends to invoke since procurement rules in this country do not allow the Government to buy second-hand goods? Is it that because the price of second-hand is so variable and unknown the Government hopes to buy secondhand machines and then mislead the public as to their real value?"}
