The Government remains committed to the Midland Metropolitan Hospital project. Ministers across Government are determined to finish construction as quickly as possible in a way that secures best value for the tax payer. We are in active discussions with all relevant parties to restart the project as soon as possible. The lenders that finance the private finance initiative company put forward a proposal to restart the project. That would have involved a further contribution of public capital. Ministers concluded that this proposal was not acceptable to the Government, for a number of reasons, and that only a contractual solution could be considered.
