Roger Godsiff – 2015 Parliamentary Question to the Department of Health

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Roger Godsiff on 2015-02-20.

To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what the total value of contracts his Department has with private sector providers was in each of the last five years for which records are available.

Dr Daniel Poulter

Information held by the Department shows the total value of contracts with private sector providers was for each of the financial years for which we have records available at a proportionate cost:

Financial Year

Value of Contract

2011/12

£365,621,061

2012/13

£428,405,616

2013/14

£245,882,759

2014/15

£156,256,479

The above figures include all spend that either currently is or was previously under contract with the third party commercial providers of the Department.

Information for 2010/11, whilst being available, is not in a format to answer the question without the Department incurring disproportionate costs.
