<p>The latest published data shows that National Health Service trusts, foundation
trusts and the Department, including its arm’s-length bodies and wholly owned property
companies, disposed of 301 surplus sites between April 2015 and March 2017, generating
£439 million in receipts from unconditional sales. This data is available online,
as part of Cabinet Office’s ‘Transparency Report: Government’s land and property disposals
in 2015-16 and 2016-17’, published in April 2018 at the following link:</p><p> </p><p><a

</p><p>Similar data relating to the 2017-18 financial year will be published in due
course.</p><p> </p><p>The Department annually collects data on properties owned by
NHS trusts and foundation trusts which has been declared surplus and planned for future
disposal. This collection does not include properties owned by the Department, its
arm’s-length bodies and wholly owned property companies. Information reported directly
by trusts show that as at 31 March 2018 the total declared market value of surplus
and potentially surplus land was £260 million; however, many organisations were not
able to provide figures due to data limitations, including commercial confidentiality.
