"Regarding the request addressed to DSU/IGSU by the Ministry of Education regarding the test supply schedule, through the answer communicated this evening we were informed that 'the quantity of 8,000,000 pieces was received, only 7,000,000 pieces remaining to be delivered, because the suppliers of DDS Diagnostic SRL and ISSOSOCIAL MEDIA SRL have not fulfilled their contractual obligations'. In the answer received, we were not informed of the datewhen the 7,000,000 tests will be delivered. As such, the Ministry of Education will request further clarifications on this issue," the cited reads reads.
