Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what progress has been made on assessing the business case for a new-build Leighton Hospital and Victoria Infirmary in Cheshire.
The Department has not received a business case for a new-build scheme at either Leighton Hospital or Victoria Infirmary from Mid Cheshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. We understand the Trust is currently developing a strategic outline case for the redevelopment of Leighton Hospital.
