Proceeding contribution from Lord Young of Norwood Green (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 7 September 2011. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Construction Contracts (England) Exclusion Order 2011.
Construction Contracts (England) Exclusion Order 2011
My Lords, I welcome the comprehensive statement read by the Minister. We do not see this as a matter of controversy; its origins lie before the 1997 election and it continued until the 2009 legislation. We do not see the proposals as controversial and we do not intend to oppose them. I tend to agree with the noble Lord, Lord Razzall, on PFI contracts. If I had one other comment to make, it would be to ask whether there would be an impact regarding the participation of SMEs in these contracts, something that I know the Government see as desirable. With those comments, I await the Minister’s response.
