PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
(29 August 2025)

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what his Department's planned timetable is for publishing guidance on the financial implications for GP partnerships of the NHS 10 Year Plan.

Asked by:
Pippa Heylings (Liberal Democrat)

We remain committed to the GP partnership model and have committed to working with the GP Committee of the British Medical Association (GPC England) to secure a new substantive GP contract within this Parliament.

The 10-Year Health Plan represents a significant opportunity for general practice. It signals our intention to build a neighbourhood health service, shifting resources from hospital to community, with general practice playing a central role. The excellent GP leaders we currently have across the system, and those we will nurture and develop for future generations, will be integral in shaping and delivering neighbourhood health.

We will engage with GPC England and other key stakeholders on changes to the GP contract, longer-term General Medical Services contract reform and neighbourhood health arrangements over the coming weeks and months.
