Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what estimate his Department has made of the return to date on the investment from the public purse made in NHS Property Services Limited.

Since its establishment in April 2013, NHS Property Services has:

- Through disposals of surplus sites and properties, delivered £200 million in capital receipts, which has been directly reinvested in the National Health Service estate, and released land for an estimated 4,000 new housing units, almost 3,000 of which are currently under construction;

- Delivered 500 capital investment construction projects every year; and

- Reduced its running costs by £120 million.
