answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/03/2018 answer text <p>Our assessment is that the liquidation of Carillion will require British Museum to replace their former facilities management (FM) contract with a revised strategy which continues to maintain uninterrupted and resilient operations. We have not seen, and would not expect to see, the terms of the museum's contract with Carillion, but it is likely that such clauses exist. At present services continue to be run by the Official Receiver post liquidation. The museum is currently exploring short-term outsourced solutions to transition itself away from Official Receiver reliance, and is separately planning its long-term response to ensure that it has a robust and resilience FM service.</p> answering member constituency Northampton North answering member printed Michael Ellis question first answered 20/03/2018 16:08:37 answering member 4116 label Biography information for Sir Michael Ellis
