answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 03/12/2018 answer text <p>The Ministry of Justice has recently launched a competition to establish a framework of prison operators, from which the operators of the new prisons at Wellingborough and Glen Parva will be selected. Her Majesty’s Prison and Probation Service will not be bidding in the competition. There will instead be a ‘public sector benchmark’, against which potential operators’ bids can be assessed. Where bids do not meet sufficient quality or value for money thresholds the public sector will act as the provider.</p><p>We have taken this approach as, rightly, our current focus is on getting the basics right by addressing the significant challenges we face in improving safety and decency in our prisons. We have learned from past experience that establishing an internal bid team was an unnecessarily complex way to manage a competition.</p><p>This approach will enable us to undertake rigorous financial and operational assessment of bids put forward by any existing or potential operator to ensure they are of sufficient quality, value and affordability compared to a public sector comparator.</p><p>The Government is committed to a diverse market of prison operators and competition for custodial services remains an important way of achieving that and driving quality of operations and innovation across the system.</p> answering member constituency Penrith and The Border answering member printed Rory Stewart grouped question UIN 196267 196268 question first answered 03/12/2018 17:48:17 answering member 4137 label Biography information for Rory Stewart
