On 12 March 2014 the Justice Secretary informed the House that G4S had agreed to repay £108.9m owed to Government on the company\u2019s electronic monitoring contract and on two contracts for facilities management in the courts. This followed the Justice Secretary\u2019s announcement on 19 December 2013 that Serco had agreed to repay £70.5m owed on the company\u2019s electronic monitoring and prisoner escort contracts.<\/p>
<\/p>
The sums in question also included provision for the direct costs to Government arising from these matters.<\/p>
<\/strong><\/p> Both companies have repaid all money requested in accordance with the settlement agreements.<\/p> <\/p> We are not aware of any outstanding debts owed to this Department by the companies. We are managing all MoJ contracts robustly and would take swift action to recover any debt owed should we become aware of such an issue.<\/p>"}
