Our priority is to keep public services running. We have extensive contingency plans and are working hard to minimise any disruption.<\/p>
<\/p>
We have worked closely across government with all affected departments and stakeholders to develop robust contingency plans that enable us to maintain the continuity and mitigate impacts to public services where possible. It would not be appropriate to speculate on commercially sensitive discussions at this time.<\/p>
<\/p>
As these plans contain commercially sensitive information it would not be appropriate to publish them.<\/p>
<\/p>
We will of course keep the House updated on developments as they arise.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4441", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Oliver Dowden"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Hertsmere"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Oliver Dowden"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2018-01-16", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "groupedQuestionUIN" : [{"_value" : "122170"} , {"_value" : "122171"} , {"_value" : "122175"} , {"_value" : "122176"} ], "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-01-16T17:40:00.89Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "53"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Cabinet Office"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Cabinet Office"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2018-01-11", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Carillion"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, pursuant to the oral contribution of the Parliamentary Secretary of 10 January 2018, Official Report cols. 307-8, on Government Contracts: SMEs, what estimate the Government has made of the cost to the public purse of contingency plans in the event of Carillion folding.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/410", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Jon Trickett"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Hemsworth"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Jon Trickett"} ], "uin" : "122169"} ], "itemsPerPage" : 10, "page" : 0, "startIndex" : 1, "totalResults" : 1, "type" : ["http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#ListEndpoint", "http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#Page"]} }
