Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health, if he will request a report from the Chair of the Southend University Hospital NHS Foundation Trust on how much Southend University Hospital received from car parking charges in each of the last two years and what use was made of those funds by that hospital; and if he will make a statement.
These are operational matters for the Foundation Trust.
We have written to Alan Tobias OBE, Chair of the Southend University Hospital NHS Foundation Trust informing him of the hon. Member’s enquiry. He will reply shortly and a copy of the letter will be placed in the Library.
