Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, if he will publish (a) a list of the companies contracted to deliver PPE, (b) the lengths of each of those contacts and (c) the value of those contracts.
We are unable to provide the information requested on suppliers where the personal protective equipment (PPE) was deemed unsuitable, as this information is commercially sensitive. Where a product fails to meet the required standard during the quality assurance process, we will aim to recoup costs.
A list of suppliers contracted to deliver PPE, with the start and end dates of these contracts and contract values is attached. However, we are unable to provide the information requested for 16 contracts, as this information is commercially sensitive.
