To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what estimate her Department has made of the average social value weighting applied by contracting authorities in procurements of new buses supported by Government funding schemes in each of the last five years

Answer

Answered by Simon Lightwood, 27 Feb 2026

My department devolves the procurement activities to the contracting authority for new buses and therefore does not hold information on the average social value weighting which may have been applied.
