Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, if he will make an estimate of the number of NHS Trusts in England whose rental income from telecommunications apparatuses has reduced as a result of renegotiations with network or infrastructure providers since reforms of the Electronic Communications Code in 2017 came into effect; and if she will make a statement.

We have no plans to make a specific assessment as this information is not collected centrally. Local National Health Service organisations are responsible for the installation of electronic communications networks and the maintenance of related infrastructure.
