CANCELLATION OF PATHWAY PROJECT TO REBUILD LEICESTER HOSPITALS

Early day motion 2010, tabled 25 July 2007 by Keith Vaz (Labour). Signed by 3 members.

That this House condemns the announcement by the University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust that the Pathway Project to redevelop Leicester hospitals has been cancelled; notes that over £20 million has been spent in planning the project and that this could have been spent on patients instead; notes with frustration that the Pathway Project had been in existence for seven years without any construction; believes that the citizens of Leicestershire deserve quality healthcare services; and calls on the Department of Health to ensure that the City of Leicester benefits from well-targeted investment to redevelop its hospitals as soon as possible.
