Minister Will Quince thanked Elliot Colburn for raising the debate on delays in building a new hospital in Sutton. He confirmed that Epsom and St Helier University Hospitals NHS Trust is part of cohort 3 pathfinder schemes within the national programme approach, currently at outline business case stage with £20.5 million received to date. The Minister highlighted the Government's commitment to Hospital 2.0, an integrated systems approach aiming for up to a 25% efficiency increase compared to traditional methods. He announced plans for parliamentary events and roadshows to demonstrate progress on new hospital designs. Quince confirmed Lord Markham’s visit to the trust when his schedule permits. Regarding maintenance, he noted that NHS organisations are legally responsible but acknowledged decreasing backlog levels since 2016-17. The Government has invested substantial sums in capital investment for trusts to maintain and refurbish premises, including £4.2 billion this year and £8.4 billion over the next two years. He assured continued support through events, communication pieces, milestone moments, and parliamentary engagement to ensure efficient delivery of new facilities.
