Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what proportion of NHS capital investment in 2025-26 was allocated to constituencies ranked in the top 10 most deprived in England.

The Department does not routinely calculate or publish National Health Service capital investment on a constituency basis, including by levels of deprivation. Capital funding is allocated primarily through system‑level operational capital and national capital programmes, with investment decisions taken by integrated care boards and NHS trusts in line with local need, priorities and affordability.

Detailed information on NHS capital investment for 2025/26, including trust and system‑level capital allocations, will be set out in the Financial Assistance under Section 40 of the National Health Service Act 2006 Report which is part of Department’s annual reports and accounts, due to be published following the end of the financial year.
