Mrs. Calton: To ask the Secretary of State for Health (1) what assessment his Department has made of the (a) sustainability
and environmental impact of its private finance initiative (PFI) projects and (b) effectiveness of the PFI process to deliver
environmentally sustainable projects; [181651]
(2) what steps he is taking to ensure that private finance initiative projects for which his Department is responsible create the
minimum of environmental damage; [181656]
(3) what plans he has to make private finance initiative contracts more accountable and transparent in terms of environmental
sustainability. [181724]
Mr. Hutton: The NHS environmental assessment tool kit (NEAT) is the national health service's response to the Government's
objective of a sustainable construction programme.
All capital development schemes, whether private finance initiative (PFI) or publicly funded, must submit a NEAT as part of their
full business case (FBC). The business case must demonstrate a commitment to meeting the NEAT score rating of "excellent" for a new
build or "very good" for a refurbishment scheme.
By integrating the design, build and operational aspects into a single financial package, PFI helps to encourage greater efficiency,
including energy efficiency, over the whole life of the contract.
In the interests of accountability and transparency, all full business cases are published.
