Alberta NDP is calling for a full public inquiry into allegations of high-level government corruption in medical contracts for private surgical facilities.

Alberta Health Services , along with the province’s auditor general Doug Wylie , have announced they will be looking into questions surrounding health procurement.

The Opposition NDP says the allegations are so serious they warrant an investigation by the RCMP , the ethics commissioner as well as a full inquiry.

AHS said last week it will suspend awarding contracts to firms at the centre of its investigation but has not specified what those firms are.

RCMP spokesperson Cpl . Troy Savinkoff said Wednesday that Mounties were still reviewing the allegations.

Albertans deserve better, says Pancholi .
