PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
(23 June 2025)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what steps his Department is taking to ensure that primary care services are adequately resourced in Surrey.

Asked by:
Helen Maguire (Liberal Democrat)

Answer

Every year we consult with each primary care profession about what services they will provide, and the funding providers are entitled to in return under their contracts.

Integrated care boards (ICBs) are responsible for commissioning primary care services within their regions. This includes ensuring service providers are able to meet the reasonable needs of their patient population. Where necessary, ICBs can commission local enhanced services which can vary in scope and funding, to fit the needs of the patient population.
