This was only done once IPA were content that DEFRA had strong and appropriate assurance in place to ensure HMG’s interests were protected, and was documented through an exchange of letters between the CEO of the IPA and the DEFRA Accounting Officer.</p><p>Although no longer on the Government major projects portfolio, DEFRA and IPA continue to work closely together on the project.</p><p> </p> answering member printed Lord Young of Cookham question first answered 21/02/2018 14:54:17 answering member 57 label Biography information for Lord Young of Cookham

	tabling member printed	Lord Bassam of Brighton
	uin	HL5131
	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/02/2018 answer text <p>Public sector services contracts have maintained continuity without any significant disruption. Construction contracts have had to be made safe and secure and new contractors will be appointed as soon as possible to continue the works. Public sector bodies will continue to pay for the cost of the services that Carillion were providing as they usually would have done to Carillion. HMT have provided working capital to the Official Receiver in order for him to continue to run the public sector services provided by Carillion. Any proceeds from the sales of assets will offset these costs therefore the full cost is not yet known.</p> answering member printed Lord Young of Cookham question first answered 20/02/2018 14:07:30 answering member 57 label Biography information for Lord Young of Cookham

	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/02/2018 answer text <p>The continuation of public services has and continues to be our primary focus.
