Is the Under-Secretary aware that I have in my hand evidence from two most reputable Scottish firms who state that this argument used by the Department is fatuous and that one of them has had experience of this type of structure on behalf of the Scottish Education Department? Will the hon. Lady bear in mind that it is being alleged that one of the reasons for this state of affairs is that the representative of the London firm which got these contracts without competitive tender was a former official of the Scottish Education Department? Will the Under-Secretary investigate this matter and assure the House that Scottish firms will get fair play in future?
