Today the NAO published it's third investigation into the governments PPE procurement during the pandemic.

It makes for very uncomfortable reading for the Government and it's 'VIP' pals.

🧵 Image
🔴The NAO confirmed 46 out of 115 contracts handed to 'VIP's 'did not go through the eight-stage due diligence process'

The NAO said the DHSC did not 'fully understand the contract management risks it was exposing itself to' with these VIP's🤨 Image
🔴The NAO confirmed that '53% of VIP lane suppliers provided some PPE items classified as not currently suitable for front line services' 🤯

🔴'25% of VIP suppliers provided PPE that was wastage' i.e 'cannot be used in anyway' Image

Something really is wrong with the @DHSCgovuk record on Ministerial transparency!

A short thread:
The former Health Secretary held a meeting on 17 March 2020 with a testing company Thriva.

However there is no sign of this meeting in the @DHSCgovuk transparency data.

Thriva went on to secure £185m in covid testing contracts.
The @DHSCgovuk published ministerial meeting data covering this period suggests Matt Hancock didn't have any external meetings from the 03 Feb 2020 to 18 March 2020.

Seem's strange. This was an important 6 weeks leading up to the first national lockdown!
