SUMMARY:ESG-related violations as exclusion grounds?
DESCRIPTION:Corrupt and collusive practices are common grounds for exclus
 ion in public and multilateral development bank (MDB) procurement. The f
 ight against corruption is caught by the ‘G’ of ESG and thus is the focu
 s of exclusions and debarments. But what about other ESG-related issues?
  How are those identified\, investigated and then sanctioned? Are ESG-vi
 olations sufficient grounds that can lead to exclusion or debarment?\n\n
 Panellists will discuss how MDBs and public authorities have started to 
 include ESG considerations in their investigation practices. Just as the
  US Magnitsky Act considers corruption as a human rights violation\, MDB
  and public procurement could be close to extending their investigations
  by scrutinising more than the traditional sanctionable practices to san
 ction also other ESG violations committed under their projects.\n
