Labour — Queen's Park and Maida Vale

Speaking in the House of Commons on 24 October 2024

Debate

Public Procurement

Contribution

My hon. Friend can see just how keen I am to act on this issue. He is right that taxpayers are paying the price for the Conservative Government allowing waste and fraud to spiral out of control. The Chancellor of the Exchequer recently took decisive action by appointing a new covid counter-fraud commissioner to help us recover public money and ensure that this never happens again.[Official Report, 11 November 2024; Vol. 756, c. 5WC.] (Correction) I am working closely with the Public Sector Fraud Authority to push every avenue to detect fraud, from advanced artificial intelligence and analytics through to strengthening our enforcement powers.
