The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what the planned completion date is for the rebuild of Hinchingbrooke Hospital as part of Wave 1 of the New Hospital Programme.

Answered by Karin Smyth

The pre-construction activity for the Hinchingbrooke Hospital scheme, which includes business case development and critical enabling works, is ongoing, with construction of the main hospital build expected to commence in 2027/28 as part of wave one of the New Hospital Programme.

The expected completion dates for all schemes will be confirmed following the approval of a Full Business Case as set out in HM Treasury Green Book, as is usual for large infrastructure projects
