The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what assessment he has made of the adequacy of the level of ministerial engagement with the Hon. Member for Surrey Heath regarding discussions on the rebuild of Frimley Park Hospital under the New Hospital Programme.

Answered by Karin Smyth

Ministers continue to engage appropriately with hon. Members on New Hospital Programme schemes, including on the proposed redevelopment of Frimley Park Hospital. The hon. Member for Surrey Heath has had opportunities to raise issues through Wave 1 MP sessions, ministerial surgeries, parliamentary debates, correspondence and parliamentary questions.

This is supported by official-level engagement with NHS England and regular engagement with the trust. Engagement will continue as the scheme progresses and key milestones are reached.
