Member for Harborough (Sir J. Farr) on 12 June 1985, Official Report, columns 489–93.
§ Mr. Newton[pursuant to his reply, 24 November 1986]: Health authorities are continuing to make considerable progress in improving the cost effectiveness of their domestic cleaning, catering and laundry services. At 30 September 1986 over two-thirds of these services had been subject to competitive tendering resulting in savings of almost £73 million a year. This compares with savings of £29 million from the policy of competitive tendering only 12 months ago. Private contractors have been awarded a total of 173 contracts saving £24.6 million. In-house organisations have secured 773 tenders saving £48.1 million. The resources released are retained by health authorities and are now making a substantial contribution to the improvement of patient care services. Details are as follows.
Table A summarises the progress and savings made by each health authority. Table B lists the results of tendering exercises of which we are aware.
