Answered by Susan Deacon on 30 Jul 1999 · 14 days after it was lodged, on time

In 1997 Health Care International (HCI) expressed interest in Greater Glasgow Health Board's proposals to create a new Western Infirmary under the Private Finance Initiative (PFI). Those proposals were not pursued.Currently Greater Glasgow Health Board and the North Glasgow University Hospitals NHS Trust are developing new proposals for acute hospital services in West Glasgow as described in the Health Board's Health Improvement Programme. Any proposal from Health Care International would be considered on its merits. No such proposal has been made.
