End all local and national public sector service outsourcing

Closed 5,175 signatures

What the petition asks

The recent collapse of Carillion has brought attention to the failings of the private sector in delivering vital public services. This petition calls to end all future outsourcing of public service contracts both locally and nationally including councils, health, education and the civil service.
In order for this to be enforced, the petition is calling for legislation ruling such contracts unlawful.
