Lord Warner – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Department of Health

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Lord Warner on 2016-01-20.

To ask Her Majesty’s Government what they estimate will be the percentage of gross domestic product spent on (1) the NHS and public health, (2) publicly financed adult social care, and (c) both of those, following the allocations and economic forecast in the 2015 Spending Review.

Lord Prior of Brampton

The Department is unable to provide estimated spend figures as a percentage of United Kingdom gross domestic product.

The Department reports on health expenditure in England but we are not in a position to provide equivalent health estimated spend figures from the devolved administrations.
