§ Baroness Macleod of Borveasked Her Majesty's Government:
What decision has been made about the future of St. George's Hospital, Hyde Park Corner.
§ Lord Cullen of AshbourneFollowing the move of St. George's Hospital to Tooting, there is no further National Health Service use for the property. There are however some problems to be resolved concerning pre-emptive and restrictive covenants affecting part of the site, on which counsel's opinion is being considered, together with a need to establish the planning position, before a decision can be taken on its future use. The Government hope to make a further statement shortly.
