HC Deb 30 July 1998 vol 317 c472W
Mr. Love

To ask the Secretary of State for Social Security what role he intends for approved welfare providers in his plans for welfare reform; and if he will make a statement on their relationship to pension providers. [53251]

Mr. Denham

The Welfare Reform Green Paper, "New ambitions for our country: A New Contract for Welfare", proposed that the public and private sectors should work in partnership to make welfare provision. Such private-public partnerships are one of a range of possibilities currently being considered.
