Nipdec forced to release bus tender info

The National Insurance Property Development Company Limited (Nipdec) has been ordered to disclose documents related to the tendering process for a contract to supply 35 buses to the Public Transport Service Corporation (PTSC) in 2013.

Delivering a 17-page judgment in the Port-of-Spain High Court last week, Justice Eleanor Donaldson-Honeywell ruled that Nipdec could not prove it was exempt from disclosing the documents to Wescan Trinidad Agency, one of the companies that was unsuccessful in the tendering process.

In 2012, Nipdec was engaged by PTSC to procure 100 CNG-powered and GPS-capable buses in three phases over five years.
