Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, for what reasons his Department has not made a decision on the scheme-specific business case for the redevelopment of Whipps Cross Hospital.
Answered by Will Quince
Whipps Cross Hospital is one of the Pathfinder schemes within the New Hospital Programme, these will be the first of the larger and more complex schemes to be taken forward. Decisions on specific business cases for schemes which are expected to be funded after 2025 are dependent on the approval of the programme wide business case.
The New Hospital Programme continues to work closely with Barts Health NHS Trust to develop their new hospital scheme at Whipps Cross Hospital in line with the national programme approach to standardisation which will reduce end to end delivery timescales for individual schemes. The national approach will ensure efficient delivery of the new hospitals and provide value for money so that patients and staff have access to world class facilities.

Answered by Will Quince
Reforms to the Human Medicines Regulations 2012 are progressing under the Medicines and Medical Devices Act 2021. The Act supports the United Kingdom’s ambitions for the Life Sciences sector through regulations to increase innovation and support the development of new medical technologies. This includes placing the Early Access to Medicines Scheme on a statutory basis, supporting the continued safe deployment of COVID-19 and flu vaccines, and consulting on proposals for a new regulatory framework to enable innovative medicines to be manufactured and delivered at the point of care.
Through the Retained EU Law (Revocation and Reform) Bill, the Government is currently reviewing which retained European Union law should be repealed, reformed or preserved. The Government continues to work with a range of stakeholders to ensure that any such reforms maintain current standards in patient safety and public health. The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency is participating in the review of all retained EU law within its responsibilities.
