HC Deb 15 January 1987 vol 108 c295W
Mr. Dalyell

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will make it his policy to exclude from consideration for Government computer contracts those firms which have been found guilty of infringing immigration laws.

Mr. Brooke

In order to secure value for money for the taxpayer the Government seek to ensure that the firms with which they deal are capable of fulfilling their commitments. Judgment in this context would naturally embrace proven breaches of the law.
