Proceeding contribution from Hazel Blears (Labour) in the House of Commons on Friday, 25 November 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Public Services (Social Value) Bill.
Public Services (Social Value) Bill
My hon. Friend will recall that in Committee I raised the example of B4Box, a construction social enterprise that refurbishes houses, does construction work and employs people who have a difficult and troubled employment history. The Minister was unable to satisfy me at that time—and I have heard nothing since—about how that amazing social enterprise could be covered under ““social value””, because it deals with goods and services, and sometimes the goods might well exceed the services.
