Health Services: Knowsley

Asked by Anneliese MidgleyLabourDepartment of Health and Social CareTabled Answered 9 September 2024UIN 3296

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how many NHS sites have closed in Knowsley since May 2010; and what the (a) name and (b) postcode was of each site.

Answered by Karin Smyth

The information requested is not held centrally. The Department is not one that is land-owning but works closely with NHS England to ensure that National Health Service estates should first and foremost support and enable the NHS’s operational requirements.

Integrated care systems are now developing comprehensive infrastructure strategies to inform the future pipeline of land and the overall approach to optimising the estate. When completed, these will inform our national approach.
