Proceeding contribution from Sam Gyimah (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
I agree that there are local businesses that fulfil a social good, but we do not want people just to decide, ““You know what, I want to set up a business, and because 20% of it is for servicing the local authority, I will be supported.”” I strongly believe that we must draw a distinction between for-profit businesses whose main purpose is rewarding shareholders and businesses that are delivering social goods.
