Prohibit so-called VIP lanes or channels for Government procurement contracts.

Closed 32 signatures

What the petition asks

All Government contracts should be subject to rigorous procurement procedures and should not allow informal/ personal arrangements to influence or subvert the contractual process.
There is much public interest in discovering the extent to which so-called VIP lanes are routinely allowed to over-ride the necessary due diligence and procurement process, by allowing public funding to be channelled towards individuals and organisations referred by Ministers, Secretaries of State and officials.
