To ask the Secretary of State for Health what recent discussions he has had concerning the future of transplant services at Northern General Hospital, Sheffield. [147344]

We are currently considering proposals for the future of the national cardiothoracic transplant service submitted by the National Specialist Commissioning Advisory Group which may have implications for services at the Northern General Hospital in Sheffield.
