Conor McGinn – 2015 Parliamentary Question to the Department of Health

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Conor McGinn on 2015-11-10.

To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what additional financial support he plans to make available to the NHS to deal with pressure on services in winter 2015-16.

Mr Jeremy Hunt

£400 million in resilience money has been invested in the National Health Service for this winter. Learning from previous years, we have put this money into the NHS baseline for 2015/16 so that the NHS can plan effectively at an earlier stage.

There will be no further additional money for the NHS ahead of winter.
