HL Deb 14 July 2004 vol 663 cc151-2WA

Lord Oakeshott of Seagrove Bay asked Her Majesty's Government:

In which private finance initiative and public private partnership projects in London Jarvis plc or any of its subsidiaries is:

The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State, Department for Culture, Media and Sport (Lord McIntosh of Haringey): A list of signed PFI contracts is published on the HM Treasury public website, listing contracts by department, location and region and giving an estimate of the capital value of investment under the contract. Information on consortium membership and the identity of main contractors is not held centrally.

Lord Oakeshott of Seagrove Bay asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether the finances of Jarvis plc are sufficiently robust to ensure that its subsidiary Prismo will meet its obligations for preparatory works for Liverpool City of Culture 2008. [HL3617]

Lord McIntosh of Haringey:

The delivery of Liverpool's plans for its year as European Capital of Culture 2008 are a matter for the Liverpool Culture Company. The company has informed me that there is currently no intention for Prismo to be involved in any of its projects. Prismo is one of three framework contractors for future planned work in the city by Liverpool City Council but thus far no work has been awarded to it.
