<p>Following the November 2020 Spending Review, we are carefully considering how the
next round of projects are prioritised within the Department’s settlement. Trusts,
including Mersey Care NHS Foundation Trust and North West Boroughs Healthcare NHS
Foundation Trust, should continue discussing their plans with NHS England and NHS
Improvement to help consider the priority of their schemes and whether they should
be further developed at this time.</p><p>Local health systems will shortly be receiving
confirmation of their capital envelopes for 2021-22, and the settlement from HM Treasury
has enabled us to protect the level of capital funding for trusts. This enables them
to progress priority investments agreed with local health partners.</p>
