Health Services: Greater London
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what plans he has to improve the Epsom and St Helier NHS Trust Estate; and whether he plans to build a new Specialist and Emergency Care hospital in Sutton.
Answered by Karin Smyth
We recognise the need for investment in National Health Service estates across the country, including at Epsom and St. Helier. We will provide the investment and reform needed to get patients the care they deserve.
As my Rt hon. Friend, the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care announced, and as subsequently confirmed in my Rt hon. Friend, the Chancellor of the Exchequer’s statement on 29 July 2024, we will be undertaking a full and comprehensive review of the New Hospital Programme to provide a realistic and costed timetable for delivery.
