Green Procurement Targets
Has the department established green procurement targets?
| No |
The Office of the Commissioner of Lobbying (OCL) has made some progress towards integrating environmental performance considerations into its procurement decision-making processes.
Even though OCL has not yet established green procurement targets, it is contributing to protection of the environment by using green procurement standing offers whenever possible, buying high-content recycled paper, and recycling spent batteries as well as empty toner cartridges used in office printers. A new initiative was fully implemented which consists of purchasing rechargeable batteries. The initiative was well received and supported by all staff.
Other initiatives include printing the OCL's annual report and investigation reports on 100% recycled paper, double-sided printing of documents whenever possible, circulating documents of interest and/or making them available on a shared computer drive rather than printing multiple copies for internal distribution, and using the OCL's website as the preferred means for public distribution of information and corporate publications.
