Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether there are agreements in place between the UK Government and the Welsh Government to prevent competitive bidding for medical equipment needed to respond to the covid-19 outbreak.
This question was answered on 28th April 2020
Health is a devolved matter. There is not an agreement between the UK and Welsh Government to prevent competitive bidding.
The UK Government continues to work well with the devolved administrations. We have no record of competitive bidding practices taking place with the Welsh Government.
