Written Question
Palantir
Thursday 25th June 2026

Asked by: Fleur Anderson (Labour - Putney)

Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, if he will review the NHS Federated Data Platform contract with Palantir ahead of the 2027 break clause, in the context of reported concerns about undisclosed access to identifiable patient data and the disapplication of the National Data Opt-Out.

Answered by Preet Kaur Gill

The NHS Federated Data Platform (NHS FDP) safely connects information from different systems across the National Health Service into a single, secure environment. This allows staff to co-ordinate care better to improve outcomes for patients.

The NHS FDP is delivering for the NHS, helping people get the care they need quicker and more efficiently. Since March 2024, more than 100,000 additional patients have been supported to undergo procedures in theatres partly by increasing theatre utilisation. Nearly 94,000 people have been supported on their cancer journey, with 7% seeing a reduction in the time it took to diagnose their cancer. There has been a 14% decrease in delays discharging patients staying in hospital for more than seven days, freeing up beds for those who need them most. NHS England publishes quarterly information on benefits realised from the FDP, which is available at the following link:

https://www.england.nhs.uk/digitaltechnology/nhs-federated-data-platform/impact/fdp-uptake-and-benefits/

As of the end of May 2026, 170 trusts have signed up for the NHS FDP including St George’s University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.

The supplier contract for the NHS FDP will be reviewed in line with standard contract management processes, and a decision will be made this year regarding the available extension provisions.
