Sažetak
The issue of public procurement comes up from the very fact
that in this process budgetary and other public funds are spent. This is
rather a significat amount of public funds - on the global level, public
procurement reaches up to 12% of GDP and 29% of budget funds. A
series of rules and regulations have to be applied, aiming to regulate
public procurement procedures to make them transparent, efficient,
and strictly formal and normatively regulated. Therefore, public bodies
are expected to effectively implement public procurement by applying
the principle of ‘best value for money’ and with high standards of
ethical and moral behavior. Croatia, like all countries in the world,
faces a series of problems related to irregularity in public procurement,
especially corruption as a general social problem. By becoming a
member of the European Union, Croatia undertook to adapt its
legislation to the legislation of the European Union. The purpose of
this paper is to present the effects of improving public procurement
legislation in Croatia by analysing available statistical data.
