Award Of Business Link Service Contract For The Humber Region To A4e By The Small Business Service
EDM number 169 in 2000-01, proposed by Kevin McNamara on 09/01/2001.
That this House is concerned that the Small Business Service has accepted the proposals to deliver Business Link services in the Humber region submitted by A4E which contained serious misrepresentations and failures to meet the bidding guidance published by SBS; notes the complete lack of confidence held by the local business community and delivery agencies, including the four unitary authorities, in the ability of A4E to deliver a quality Business Link service; and accordingly urges Ministers to urgently examine the procedures followed by SBS and the representations made by A4E and to reconsider all the qualifying bids in the light of the information now available.
This motion has been signed by a total of 15 MPs.
