Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask Her Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Lord Young of Cookham on 25 January (HL4735), which Carillion contracts have had work suspended while an alternative provider contractor is found.

The Official Receiver is conducting an orderly liquidation of the company. Our priority is the continuity of public services. Of the private sector service contracts, 90% of these services customers have indicated that they want Carillion to continue providing services in the interim until new suppliers can be found and will provide funding which enables the Official Receiver to retain the employees working on those contracts.
