Question to the HM Treasury:
To ask Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer, how many contracts signed by his Department with suppliers of services or consultants include a clause providing that if the contract is abrogated by the Government, the provider or consultant will be compensated for lost income since 2010.
Since January 2011, central Government Departments have been required to publish on Contracts Finder information on the tenders issued and contracts they award with a value over £10,000
In addition, Departments including HM Treasury routinely publish details of transactions over £25,000.
Information relating to the number of contracts that include a clause providing that if the contract is abrogated by the Government, the provider or consultant will be compensated for lost income, is not held centrally.
