Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between James Grundy and Amanda Milling

Thursday 16th July 2020 Commons Chamber

[Amanda Milling]

We have received an extraordinary response from people offering to supply PPE and UK manufacturers wanting to make equipment from scratch, including the firm my hon.

Although further personal protective equipment offers are not needed at the moment, we continue to invite other forms of support from industry.
