Proceeding contribution from Earl Attlee (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 30 November 2010. It occurred during Question for short debate on Railways: Public Procurement.
Railways: Public Procurement
My Lords, I will certainly reflect upon that and have a chat with my officials afterwards. The noble Baroness, Lady Greengross, spoke of future studies in other areas of public procurement. We look forward to her results with interest and we will certainly take note of them. I am confident that the public procurement processes adopted for rail will continue to represent best practice and provide transparency and equal treatment for bidders. The rail franchise specifications which are procured will evolve and reflect the results of the consultation to provide an environment where operators have the freedom to provide improved value for money and the improvement that passengers want. Sitting suspended.
