Select Committee on Health Report


4.8d  Could the Department provide a table showing the increases to the capital cost of schemes since the last expenditure questionnaire and provide a commentary on changes of more than 10 per cent?

  1.  It is not possible to show increases in capital costs compared to last year as costs have not been determined on the same basis.

  2.  Information will be able to be provided for next year's Inquiry.

4.8e  Could the Department provide data on the revenue consequences of schemes which have reached financial close and represent long-term contractual commitment over the next 25 years? Could the Department provide an update of the Departmental Report table showing the source and applications of HCHS capital, giving the outturn position for 1997-98?

  1.  Table 4.8e.1 provides details of the revenue consequences for PFI schemes that reached financial close as at 30 April 1998.
