Proceeding contribution from Baroness Coffey (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Friday, 19 November 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Public Services (Social Enterprise and Social Value) Bill.


Public Services (Social Enterprise and Social Value) Bill

Following on from the intervention by the right hon. Member for Salford and Eccles (Hazel Blears), one of the concerns expressed to me by some of my constituents is not so much that profits could be made out of public assets, but about how, if companies fail, which they sometimes do—it is one of the essences of the market—those assets will be recovered, so that services do not go away or get stripped. That needs some consideration in Committee.
