Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what estimate his Department has made of the cost of opening each trial neighbourhood health centre.

We have committed to trialling Neighbourhood Health Centres, to bring together a range of services under one roof. This is part of our broader ambition to move towards a Neighbourhood Health Service, with more care delivered in local communities, to spot problems earlier. Costs will ultimately be dependent on the scope of facilities and delivery model, and the Government will confirm further details and next steps in due course.
