Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask Her Majesty's Government how many extra hospital beds across the United Kingdom will be needed to meet winter pressures in 2021–22.
This question was answered on 8th July 2021
The information is not available in the format requested. National Health Service bed capacity is not fixed and is flexible to meet changes in demand. Demand in winter 2021/22 remains uncertain due to factors including hospitalisations of patients with influenza or COVID-19.
