To ask Her Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of reports that they
awarded personal protective equipment (PPE) contracts to companies with records of
human rights abuses; what steps they are taking in response to any such assessment;
whether their requests for tenders for the supply of PPE stipulate that (1) the International
Labour Organization minimum standards, (2) human rights legislation, or (3) their
equivalent requirements, must be met; and what checks they undertake to ensure that
those requirements are met before awarding any contract.
