At the end of June 2003, 247 one stop primary care centres had been opened and local delivery plans suggest more than 500 will be open by the end of 2004. "Delivering the NHS Plan" (2002) announced an additional 250 centres by 2008, 125 of which are to be delivered by 2006

A detailed list of centres and their locations is not yet available but is being completed.
