Answered by Stephen Kinnock

A table showing the number of general practices and premises in each current integrated care board (ICB) area in England, each month since June 2024, is attached.

Opening and closing dates for both practices and branches were identified using data from the NHS Organisation Data Service. Locations have been mapped to current ICB boundaries. The locations sheet in the attached document includes both main and branch practices.
