Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how much his Department has paid to Ayanda Capital Ltd for the purchase of personal protective equipment; and whether that company has met its contractual obligations for providing adequate personal protective equipment under the contractual terms set by his Department.

The Department has paid £252,500,000 to Ayanda Capital for the purchase of personal protective equipment. We are unable to provide the contractual information requested as it is commercially sensitive.
