	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 01/07/2022 answer text <p>The Government is clear that those responsible for historical building safety defects must pay to put them right.</p><p>The Government has delivered a wide-ranging industry agreement with 47 major residential property developers that they will remediate all buildings above 11 metres in height that they had a role in developing or refurbishing in the past 30 years. These developers have also pledged to refund money paid out by existing Government remediation schemes to fix buildings that they originally developed and will not apply for further funding. Where the developer cannot be traced or fails to agree to cover the costs, cladding remediation will be met by Government grant funding.</p><p>The Building Safety Act 2022 contains new powers to ensure that those responsible for building safety defects can be held to account. The Act retrospectively extends the limitation period under section 1 of the Defective Premises Act 1972 to 30 years; this provides a route to cost recovery from a wide range of parties, including contractors, developers and architects, where shoddy workmanship and corner cutting have caused buildings to be unsafe. In addition, other new powers in the Act ensure that construction product manufacturers can be held to account for their failures.</p><p>The Building Safety Act brings forward legal protections for leaseholders from historical building safety costs. The Act legally protects qualifying leaseholders (those living in their own home or with up to three UK properties in total) from all costs relating to the remediation of unsafe cladding and contains robust and far-reaching protections from non-cladding costs, including those relating to interim measures such as waking watches. Where those directly responsible (e.g. developers) cannot be held to account, building owners and landlords will now be the first port of call to pay for historical safety defects, not leaseholders.</p> answering member constituency Pudsey answering member printed Stuart Andrew question first answered 01/07/2022 16:20:17 answering member 4032 label Biography information for Stuart Andrew previous answer version 9336 answering member constituency Pudsey answering member printed Stuart Andrew answering member 4032 label Biography information for Stuart Andrew

	uin	185720
	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/11/2018 answer text <p>When placing contracts through a competitive procurement process the Ministry of Defence (MOD) relies on competitive pressures to restrict profit margins to market rates. Such market pressure is absent in non-competitive contracting where the MOD relies instead upon the protections offered by Part 2 of the Defence Reform Act 2014 (DRA) and the Single Source Contract Regulations 2014 (SSCR).</p><p>Under the DRA and SSCR the MOD can make deductions to the profit margin earned on a Qualifying Defence Contract or Qualifying Subcontract, where that profit margin exceeds levels set out in the legislation.</p><p>In both competitive and single source contracting, the MOD can negotiate with a contractor Key Performance Incentives and Liquidated Damage provisions. These will have the effect of reducing payments, and hence profit margins, when performance is not to the agreed level.</p><p>MOD policy is not to pay suppliers for the costs of their failed bids. In a non-competitive procurement the MOD may consider payment of bid costs if it is the MOD that stops the tender process, at no fault of the supplier.</p><p>The MOD will have regard to the Single Source Regulations Office 'Statutory Guidance on Allowable Costs', when considering what if any business-related costs it is appropriate for the Department to accept into contract prices.</p> answering member constituency Pudsey answering member printed Stuart Andrew question first answered 08/11/2018 14:28:11 answering member 4032 label Biography information for Stuart Andrew previous answer version 83796 answering member constituency Pudsey answering member printed Stuart Andrew answering member 4032 label Biography information for Stuart Andrew
