Labour (Co-op) — Bathgate and Linlithgow

Speaking in the House of Commons on 22 April 2026

Debate

Government Procurement Strategy

Contribution

I thank the Minister for the changes, which are a welcome vote of confidence in UK business and industry. I welcome the rapid review of existing requirements that we know can slow down the procurement process, leading to frustration and inefficiencies all around. Ahead of International Workers’ Memorial Day, will he commit to having inclusive personal protective equipment as a specification in any new public sector procurement contract, and lead the way on improving workplace safety?
