Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what recent assessment his Department has made of the level of demand for renal dialysis; and what assessment his Department has made of the capability of the NHS to support future anticipated demand for dialysis with existing infrastructure.

NHS England’s renal clinical networks are undertaking demand forecasting and capacity planning to understand future in-centre patient demand for adult haemodialysis patients, and peritoneal patients unable to receive treatment at home.
