Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask Her Majesty's Government whether they commissioned impact assessments of the failure of Carillion; and if so, at what stage.

Our priority is to keep public services running. We have extensive contingency plans and are working hard to minimise any disruption.

We have worked closely across government with all affected departments and stakeholders to develop robust contingency plans that enable us to maintain the continuity and mitigate impacts to public services where possible.
