The UK government has confirmed the continuation of several hospital rebuilding projects, including the Airedale Hospital, Leighton Hospital, and facilities in Norfolk and Waveney, despite a broader review of the New Hospital Programme (NHP) aimed at financial sustainability. Airedale's rebuild will address safety concerns related to reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete (RAAC) and is expected to begin in early 2025. The Leighton Hospital project, estimated to cost over £700 million, will also proceed as planned. Additionally, two hospitals in Norfolk have received approval to advance, aligning with the government's commitment to prioritize projects involving RAAC. Meanwhile, the new West Suffolk Hospital will move forward, pending funding confirmation, as it too is affected by RAAC issues. Health Secretary Wes Streeting emphasized the need for a sustainable and realistic approach to the NHP, prioritizing patient safety and financial viability.
