HC Deb 08 June 1978 vol 951 c222W
Mr. David Mitchell

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment whether he has any plans to bring to an end the arrangement introduced by the Property Services Agency that contractors securing a tender may not employ self-employed persons on Government contracts.

Mr. Marks

There are no plans to change the existing arrangement for requiring firms to use directly employed labour, when available, on building trades work.
