During about a year, more than 5,000 children attending kindergartens in Chisinau’s Ciocana district have been fed three times a day with bread made from flour of lower quality, from fodder wheat, a member of the PLDM faction in the City Council Emil Gutu and the head of Ciocana district Galina Bostan announced in Thursday’s meeting of the Council, Info-Prim Neo reports. The company that supplies bread to these kindergartens – “Maria Gutu” – has won the tender contest as it offered a lower price than “Franzeluta”. “The quality of the bread is very bad. Unfortunately, the law favors those who offer the lowest price. Emphasis should be laid not on the price, but on the quality and the health of the children,” said Galina Bostan. Besides bread, the given company provides the kindergartens with rolls, ring-shaped biscuits and other bakery products. Galina Bostan said she repeatedly demanded that the contract with “Maria Gutu” be terminated, but the problem remained unsolved. “The case with the horse meat did not teach the local public administration a lesson. The bread supplied to the Ciocana kindergartens is awful. One should not be a specialist to understand that the bread is of a poor quality,” said Emil Gutu. The Liberal-Democrat council stressed the issue should be included in the agenda of the next meeting of the Council. In Ciocana district there are 22 kindergartens. A new tender contest will be held in Ciocana on December 20 to select the company that will supply food products to the kindergartens.
