The guidance for National Health Service trusts and foundation trusts on requesting transfer of estate in the ownership of the NHS Property Companies, which includes NHS Property Services, is published at the following link:

To date, business cases have been approved for six properties. Of these, two transfers have been completed and it is anticipated that the remaining four will transfer in the coming months, subject to the terms of transfers being met. Trusts have expressed an interest in around 30 other properties and are considering how they want to proceed.
