Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what plans he has to allocate additional funding to the NHS in increase spending on (a) infrastructure, (b) the NHS workforce and (c) public health.
The NHS Long Term Plan was launched in January 2019 by the National Health Service, and thanks to the Government’s investment of £33.9 billion in cash terms by 2023-24, will transform patient care and make sure every penny of taxpayers’ money is spent wisely.
The future of budgets outside of the NHS England resource settlement will be confirmed later this year at the Spending Review.
