Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, whether he is taking steps to ensure that existing Carillion project sub-contractors are given priority consideration when tenders are being reissued.

It is illegal to favour specific suppliers in public tendering exercises. Subcontractors are appointed by prime contractors, and Government has no involvement with the allocation of sub-contractors for public contracts.

The Official Receiver is the official contact for subcontractors who worked on Carillion projects.
