Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health, how many closures have there been of (a) hospital units, (b) GP surgeries, (c) mental health services, (d) walk-in centres, (e) accident and emergency units, (f) maternity units, (g) sexual health clinics, (h) community services, (i) urgent care centres, (j) clinics and (k) paediatric services since 2010; and how many such closures are planned in the next three years.
Changes to the local NHS services are a matter for the local National Health Service, and form part of the commissioning process. This includes working with local people and with clinicians to ensure that changes are in the best interests of patients. Records of this activity are not held centrally.
