The latest total figure for backlog maintenance, for 2017-18, is £6.0 billion.</p><p> </p><p>Individual NHS providers are responsible for the safety and quality of their estates. NHS planning guidance has made clear that providers should actively consider the requirement for funding critical estate backlog within their capital plan and explain their strategy for investment in backlog work and risk mitigation. Sustainability and transformation partnerships (STPs) have also been asked to set out their plans for tackling backlog maintenance as part of their STP level estates strategies.</p><p> </p><p>The 2017 Autumn Budget announced £3.5 billion of new additional capital investment in the NHS in England by 2022-23, including £700 million to support turnaround plans in struggling trusts and tackle critical maintenance issues.</p><p> </p><p>As the NHS develops its long-term plan, the improvement of the quality and safety of the NHS estate will be a key deliverable. The Government has been clear that one of the financial tests against which the long-term plan will be assessed is that the NHS makes better use of capital investment and its existing assets.</p> answering member constituency North East Cambridgeshire answering member printed Stephen Barclay grouped question UIN 180790 question first answered 25/10/2018 16:11:46 answering member 4095 label Biography information for Steve Barclay
