Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what recent estimate his Department has made of the cost of the scheme to rebuild Whipps Cross University Hospital.
Answered by Karin Smyth - Minister of State (Department of Health and Social Care)
The standard process confirming the total funding amount for major infrastructure projects involves the review and approval of a Full Business Case. All trusts in the New Hospital Programme have previously received indicative funding allocations to support planning, however these are commercially sensitive. The New Hospital Programme had confirmed £3.7 billion in funding up to the end of 2024/25.
The trust is currently developing their Outline Business Case for the Whipps Cross Hospital, and is at Royal Institute of British Architects Stage 2. Up to the end of the 2023/24, the total amount received by the Barts Health NHS Trust in funding for their new hospital scheme is £22.2 million.
The breakdown of how much the trust received for their new hospital scheme is published annually as part of the Department’s Annual Reports and Accounts, with Public Dividend Capital to individual trusts included in the Financial Assistance Report under section 40 of the National Health Service Act 2006. The 2022/23 report is available at the following link:
