    • Mr. Bayley

    To ask the Secretary of State for Health what is the total value of private finance initiative projects in the NHS with project values of less than £1 million that have been approved in each financial year up to 1995–96 and so far in the current financial year. [40282]

    Mr. Timms

    To ask the Secretary of State for Health how much capital spending has so far been committed by the private sector for the current financial year in respect of health service projects under the private finance initiative. [40338]

    Mr. Horam

    Information on the amount of capital committed by the private sector is not collected centrally. Capital expenditure incurred in the building and provision of facilities for a health service project occurs before the project becomes operational. The national health service thereafter is committed to the revenue payments for the service provided by the private sector in projects under the private finance initiative.
