Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether she plans to require in respect of her Department's outsourced public contracts (a) to publish the profit margin or (b) the permissible profit margin range that is agreed with the companies for such contracts.

The Home Office does not plan to require the profit margin or permissible (if any) profit margin range to be published for outsourced public contracts as this information is commercially sensitive.
