Oral question asked in the House of Commons, by Lord Spellar (Labour). It was answered by David TC Davies (Conservative) on Wednesday, 19 May 2021 on behalf of the Wales Office.


British Made Goods: Public Sector Contracts

Question

What discussions he has had with the Welsh Government on encouraging the purchasing of British made goods through public sector contracts.

Answer

Last week’s Queen’s Speech announced legislation on procurement that will increase flexibility for contracting authorities and reduce bureaucracy, which will simplify procurement in the public sector and help support British businesses. I very much hope that the Welsh Government will join us in further supporting Welsh companies.
