ESBU is prejudiced by the illegal purchase of medical equipment from the winner of the tender purchase whose founder and ultimate beneficial owner is a citizen of the russian federation. Analysts of the Territorial Department of the ESBU in the Chernivtsi region prevented the waste of budget funds through the purchase of a short-pulse laser by one of the utility companies.

In the course of information and analytical activities it was found that officials of the medical institution announced a tender for the purchase of equipment for UAH 2.2 million.

It was established that the supplier of the mentioned medical equipment did not meet the qualification criteria in accordance with the Law of Ukraine "On public procurement".

An additional risk of the purchase was the fact that the winning bidder is related to a legal entity whose founder is a citizen of the russian federation.

According to the results of the review of the recommendations of the analysts of the Territorial Department of the ESBU in Chernivtsi region, the medical institution canceled the risky purchase and terminated the relevant contract.

We will remind, recently the analysts of the Territorial Department of the ESBU in the Volyn region prevented the embezzlement of UAH 1.2 million on the purchase of medical equipment for newborns. The purchase was planned to be carried out by officials of the communal non-commercial enterprise of the Rivne city council.
