Mr. Hoyle

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment what consideration is given to quality and technical competence when contracts are being considered for former sections of the Property Services Agency.

Mr. Curry

Client departments are responsible for considering quality and technical competence standards when selecting contractors for tender lists in relation to any contract they let, whether or not one of the privatised PSAS businesses is involved.
