Management of PPE contracts

Management of PPE contracts This report identifies ‘significant failings’ in the management of PPE contracts that have led to a stockpile of almost four billion items that are not needed. It finds little evidence of action being taken against potentially fraudulent suppliers despite the Department of Health and Social Care's estimate that as much as five per cent of PPE expenditure may have involved fraud. The report urges that more robust and transparent practices should be put in place to prevent such losses in the future. House of Commons Public Accounts Committee
