Public Sector: Procurement
The question
To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, whether he plans to establish a Social Value Council.
Answered by Georgia Gould
The Government is determined to ensure the £385 billion of public money spent on public procurement annually delivers economic growth, supports small businesses, champions innovation, creates good jobs and skills opportunities across the country, and maximises social value.
To build on progress made to date and the Government’s new National Procurement Policy Statement, we will consult with stakeholders on further reforms to public procurement to drive economic growth.
