    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move:- THAT,clause 137 of the Bill be amended by— (a) deleting the words “the accounting officer of a procuring entity may notify, under section 86(1), the person who submitted the second lowest evaluated tender” appearing in subclause (1) and substituting therefor the words “he or she shall forfeit his or her tender security and the procurement process shall proceed with the next lowest evaluated tenderer”; (b) deletingsubclause (2); (c) deletingsubclause (3) (d) deletingsubclause (4). This section deals with a case where the procurement process has proceeded and the person who has won has refused to sign the contract. What the Committee felt was that if he refuses then the next person who was evaluated to be the lowest should be given the job and that process ends there. The other amendment which I am proposing is once we have amended that section to say we give to the second evaluated tender then the other subclauses become irrelevant. That is why we are deleting them."
