Vaccine Price is a taboo to the administration. 儒雅之人三度發飆：遇到「價格之問」

【縛雞之見】（中文請找古狗大神）
Chen Shih-Chung, commander of CECC, Central Epidemic Control Command, get crazy in the press conference on Sunday when he was questioned about the price of the vaccines the government purchases.  This is the third time, as to my memory, a person with a gentle and elegant character like Chen gets crazy, including one time in the Parliament.  Chen even expressed that the exposure of the price may affect the delivery schedule.
Even the price of the red zones equipment of Taiwan’s indigenous submarine, such as sonar system, combat system, torpedo launcher, allowed the legislator to examine in a secret meeting.  There is no reason for the price of vaccines the administration purchase to become top national secrete.
In contrast to CECC sees price as a kind of national secret, the donators, Foxconn and TSMC, released their cost to the public, 35 USD/dose includes all the fees.
The governments of Taiwan, either central or local, tend not to reveal the purchasing price of goods and services due to the secret clause of the contract.  The secretary clause might be needed because of marketing practice, providing a special low price to specific buyer for strategic purpose; political reason, not to trigger unnecessary disturbance; or corrupt motivation, not revealing the unbelievable high price.  Buying BNT vaccines might involve Chinese political reasons; yet, buying the AstraZeneca and moderna ought not to have such Chinese trouble. 
「已經講過很多次了，合約裡寫得清清楚楚，價格是雙方保密的事項，大家現在來問價格、要求我公開講價格的，我都講有點居心叵測。」

「現在進貨是我們最大的困難，而所有採購合約裡面都寫得清清楚楚，價格是雙方必須保密的事項，若破壞這樣的保密事項，就會影響合約有效性與進貨時程，大家現在都是怕進貨受到干擾，千萬不要因為這樣子讓進貨真正受到干擾。」

「不太了解六十七億預算編列的細節，但政府買東西都有預算數、權責數，還有已經付出的現金流。政府買訂的疫苗，目前到貨沒那麼多，付出的現金流當然還沒到預算數，但權責數都匡下來了，到貨前還會陸續付款。」

 

 

 

合計經費 D=中央補助款A+地方補助款B+ 自籌款C
實際發生權責數 E、行政作業費 F
第一期款 G=(A+B)×20%
第二期款 H=(A+B)×40%
第三期款 I=(A+B)×20%
第四期款 J=實際執行數K-實際發包的自籌款部分C"-FG-H-I

補助案之實際發生權責數(E)+行政作業費(F)，應大於或等於核定補助費(A+B)，如低於核定補助費(A+B)，則配合實際發生權責數調降第四期款撥款額度。

 

權責發生數：屬應收應付款項，須留待以後年度繼續處理。會計年度結束後，各機關已發生尚未收得之收入，應即轉入下年度列為以前年度歲入應收款；其經費未經使用者，應即停止使用，但已發生而尚未清償之債務或契約責任部分，於年度結束後10日內檢同契約或證明文件，報經行政院核定，得轉入下年度列為以前年度歲出應付款。
