Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how much of the £1.6 billion extra NHS funding announced in autumn 2017 will be spent in (a) North Cornwall constituency and (b) Cornwall.

NHS England allocates funding to clinical commissioning groups (CCGs), rather than to individual constituencies. Cornwall is served by NHS Kernow CCG.

Following the Autumn Budget’s announcement of an extra £1.6 billion of revenue funding for the National Health Service in 2018-19, NHS England has issued new planning guidance detailing how funding will be distributed in the coming year. The amount of extra funding allocated to NHS Kernow CCG in 2018-19 can be found page 4, column 7 of the document available here:
