Proceeding contribution from Lord Reid of Cardowan (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 28 February 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Offender Management Bill.


Offender Management Bill

Certainly, when I have finished this section of my speech. Let me make it clear: if a public sector provider is good enough, even outwith time scale or theme, or the assurances about ring-fenced areas that I shall give, it will have as much chance as anyone else to win the work—some would say a better chance, given the history of some providers’ involvement and experience. Our aim is simply to ensure that the best provider delivers best value for the taxpayer. That is our purpose.
