Welfare Reform Bill

I am not sure that we are very far apart on this. We are seeking to achieve the right position: when the contract with the prime contractor is finally entered into, the Secretary of State would want to know the full range of provision that is available to that prime contractor. Therefore, in a sense, the Secretary of State consents to knowing who is going to provide that full range of services. That can be distinguished from a situation where the prime contractor may have a contractual obligation to have full coverage, but who they are going to use in any individual case is left open when the contact is entered into. That is not the right approach.
