Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, if he will publish details of his Department new private finance model for building neighbourhood health centres and the business case completed for it.

The Department and the National Infrastructure and Service Transformation Authority (NISTA) will continue to work with the market to further develop the new Public Private Partnership (PPP) model for neighbourhood health centres (NHCs) with further engagement next year. The final design and development of this new PPP model for NHCs will be led by NISTA and co-designed by the Department.

The Department has no plans to publish the NHC PPP Feasibility Programme Business Case. Publication is not standard practice for business cases outside of the Government Major Projects Portfolio.
