A company linked to controversial Peer Michelle Mone is being sued by the UK Government for more than £122million.
The Government has issued civil legal proceedings against PPE Medpro, a firm at the centre of a row over the supply of personal protective equipment during the coronavirus pandemic.
The firm said the case over the supply of sterile gowns would be "rigorously defended" and accused the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) of a "cynical attempt to recover money from suppliers" who acted in good faith. The DHSC said it had issued breach of contract proceedings over the 2020 deal on the supply of gowns.
