As the 2022 academic year is about to get under way, the Competition Commission of SA has urged school governing bodies, parents and the community to adhere to guidelines on school uniforms.

The guidelines aim to make uniforms as generic as possible so they can be obtained from as many suppliers as possible. They also include: • Where there are approved suppliers, schools should follow a competitive bidding process when appointing such suppliers;• The concluded agreements should be of limited duration so that schools can continuously check the market to obtain the best offering for parents.

as a commitment to practise pro-competitive procurement. The undertaking can be found on the commission’s website www.compcom.co.za
