The Public Services (Social Value) Bill – a revolution in contracting for social outcomes?
The Public Services (Social Value) Bill (“the Bill”) had its fi rst reading in the House of Lords late in November 2011. First introduced to the House on June 30 2010, it is a Private Member’s Bill introduced by Chris White, Conservative MP for Warwick and Leamington.
The Bill’s aims are:
• To require Central and Local Government to outline how they will promote social enterprise, and to involve local communities and other interested parties in drawing up
Contracts and Procurement Education
and implementing these strategies (a key principle of the Big Society agenda).
To require public bodies, when they are purchasing goods or services, to factor in social outcomes in the contract award process which measure, for instance, how the contract can promote the economic, social or environmental wellbeing of an area.
