GOWN & OUT
BARELY noticed in the £122m judgment against the Baroness Mone-linked PPE Medpro earlier this month – finding the company had breached its contract with the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) – was the questionable role of an even larger recipient of Covid millions.
The basis of the judgment against PPE Medpro was that it had not demonstrated, as required under its contract, that 25m gowns had been properly certified for safety and sterility. That they arrived at the health department without this wasn’t helped by the performance of Essex-based logistics company Uniserve Ltd.
