Proceeding contribution from Stella Creasy (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 23 June 2011. It occurred during Adjournment debate and Backbench debate on Private Finance Initiative.
Private Finance Initiative
I am interested in what the hon. Gentleman is saying. We have all talked about the difficulty of renegotiating the existing contracts, but 61 PFI projects are currently in train for which contracts have not yet been signed. Is the logic of what he and perhaps other Government Back-Bench MPs are saying that they want the Government to stop the negotiations and to look at another format? I do not understand. If there are so many concerns about PFI as a model—it never seems to work and is always too expensive—is the sum total that it should not happen at all?
