Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what information his Department holds on agreements in place under which the West Hertfordshire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust is liable to pay for land that it is planning to acquire from Watford Borough Council in relation to the Trust's acute redevelopment scheme.

The information requested is not held centrally. National Health Service trusts and NHS foundation trusts own their own land and buildings and are responsible for the sale or disposal of identified assets. Trusts work with integrated care boards, including the local authority and NHS England, on planning and optimising their estate.
