PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
FREEDOM OF INFORMATION AND PRIVATE COMPANIES DELIVERING PUBLIC CONTRACTS (8 June 2015)

Motion Details

That this House believes that private companies delivering public contracts should be subject to freedom of information requests, because at a time when public spending is under increased scrutiny, it is more important than ever that spending is transparent; and further believes that it is imperative that any organisation using public funds is accountable to the taxpayer.
