Prisons: Repairs and Maintenance
Asked by: Lord Balfe (Conservative - Life peer) Thursday 9th January 2025 Question to the Ministry of Justice: To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Lord Timpson on 16 December 2024 (HL3055), what recent assessment they have made of the value and performance of current prison maintenance service providers. Answered by Lord Timpson - Minister of State (Ministry of Justice) The value and performance of the Department’s private-sector service providers are subject to ongoing contract management, and current performance is in line with expected parameters. As contracts approach expiry, assessments are conducted to inform decisions about future services. A 2023 assessment in partnership with the Cabinet Office determined that a privatised solution was the preferred option for future prison maintenance services. These contracts will be competitively tendered. |
