Public Services: Security of Provision

Debate between Baroness Eaton and Lord Brookman

Wednesday 19th October 2011 Lords Chamber

[Lord Brookman]

My Lords—

[Baroness Eaton]

My Lords, does my noble friend agree that one of the best ways of helping businesses, particularly small and medium enterprises, is to scrap complex and unnecessary central prescription around the commissioning process? Will he detail what the Government are doing to simplify the systems that businesses have struggled with for so many years?
