We are already providing advice and support to councils especially where public service provision is outsourced. We are also supporting a significant number of infrastructure-related projects that are delivered through the #PrivateFinanceInitiative.
We are doing everything we can to provide support to hard-working colleagues in the #publicsector. We have received a number of enquiries in relation to the complex contracting landscape that has been affected by the #COVID19 outbreak.
