To ask the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, what assessment she has made of the potential merits of including prospective premises in the Open Market Review that takes place prior to the procurement exercise for a new fibre roll-out.
To ask the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, what assessment she has made of the potential merits of including prospective premises in the Open Market Review that takes place prior to the procurement exercise for a new fibre roll-out.
When an Open Market Review (OMR) data set is pulled together all serviceable premises which are eligible for funding are included. This uses a unique premises reference number, which is how the individual sites in a procurement are defined. This is allocated at planning permission stage so they could theoretically be included, however there would only be a benefit in doing so if the build timescales aligned to the proposed intervention of that particular project
In the recent Queen’s Speech, there was reference to our intention to bring forward secondary legislation in relation to new build. If successful this would compel developers to work with network providers to make gigabit capable infrastructure available from day one. This would make the inclusion of these premises in an OMR process academic.

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how NHS Trusts procure (a) pharmaceutical drugs, (b) medical consumables, (c) medical devices and (d) medical equipment; and what happens to those items when they (i) expire, (ii) are decommissioned and (iii) reach the end of their life cycle.

Expenditure on medicines in 2018/19 financial year in England in primary care and secondary care was £15.4 billion.
All National Health Service trusts as autonomous entities record their data locally. NHS Improvement and NHS Digital have been working to centralise purchase order and invoice data centrally to provide better national data visibility on common goods and supplies (everyday hospital consumables; high value healthcare consumables; common goods and capital equipment). Spend is reported by NHS trusts on the NHS Spend Comparison Service for England; common goods and supplies contains £5.6 billion of expenditure. Reviewing the categories requested below within the spend comparison service shows:
Expenditure on examination gloves for 2018/19 financial year was £41.7 million; expenditure on disposable aprons was £4.9 million and expenditure on medical scanning devices was £359.5 million. There are no categories on the Spend Comparison Service for ‘other medical consumables’ and ‘other equipment’.
The figures above will exclude any spend not reported through the Spend Comparison Service.
NHS Trusts are autonomous entities who will make their own procurement decisions based on local pressures and demands. Collaborative procurement is promoted across healthcare to make the most of the NHS budget ensuring value for money is delivered. NHS trusts work with other local hospitals, regional procurement hubs and the national framework organisations that the Department has established - Commercial Medicines Unit and NHS Supply Chain Coordination Ltd for medicines and common goods and supplies respectively – to purchase these supplies.
NHS trusts will make individual decisions on what to do with products which expire, are decommissioned or are at the end of their lifecycle. The decision will depend on the value of the asset and whether the asset has any ongoing use. There are charities which will collect expired products for use in third world countries and there are also specialist auctioneers who will sell equipment with residual life and use. Quite often old imaging equipment will be purchased by vets.

The number of vehicles procured and the total procurement values are as follows:
Fleet (all Variants) | Total Number Procured | Total Procurement Value (£million ex VAT) |
Mastiff | 451 | 329.1 |
Ridgback | 177 | 132.9 |
Wolfhound | 126 | 107.4 |
Husky | 338 | 190.3 |

It should be noted that these figures include the procurement of the base vehicle, the integration work required to bring the vehicles up to a UK theatre entry standard and varying levels of initial spares purchases. Some contracts included the purchase of additional items, such as weapons and communication equipment. A number of the vehicle procurements were conducted via the Foreign Military Sales process, with costs calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate paid at the time.

To ask Her Majesty's Government what percentage of food served in English schools is (a) organic, and (b) locally sourced; and what plans they have, if any, to increase that percentage.
To ask Her Majesty's Government what percentage of food served in English schools is (a) organic, and (b) locally sourced; and what plans they have, if any, to increase that percentage.
Schools are responsible for their school meals service and how and where they choose to buy their produce. The department does not hold the information on what percentage of food is organic and locally sourced. Schools may use the guidance launched alongside the government’s 'Plan for Public Procurement: Food and Catering Services'.
The guidance provides a methodology which helps contracting parties balance a range of criteria when procuring food and catering services. These include production standards, health and wellbeing, resource efficiency, socio-economic factors, quality of service and price.
The guidance has been attached and is available from:
https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/a-plan-for-public-procurement-food-and-catering.
To ask Her Majesty's Government what percentage of food served in English prisons is (a) organic, and (b) locally sourced; and what plans they have, if any, to increase that percentage.
To ask Her Majesty's Government what percentage of food served in English prisons is (a) organic, and (b) locally sourced; and what plans they have, if any, to increase that percentage.
Her Majestyâs Prison and Probation Service (HMPPS) purchase food commodities for prisoner and staff meals from a national food contract currently held by Bidfood UK.
HMPPS does not require its supplier to provide figures relating to the percentage of organic and locally produced products provided to prisons through this contract. However, the contract was one of the first to adopt and implement the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA)âs Plan for Public Procurement: Food & Catering. Regular scrutiny and reporting of the contract shows that the level of UK sourced commodities purchased is 52% (Country of Origin) and the level of small and medium sized enterprises (SME) provision is over 60%. Bidfood UK are committed to increasing the percentage of UK sourced products.
