Running Edinburgh's old and new Sick Kids hospitals in tandem cost taxpayers £11.5m

The new Sick Kids hospital at Little France had running costs of over £7m in 2020/21
The previous year the new building had running costs of £3.5m even though the building was standing empty.
The figures were obtained under Freedom of Information legislation by Lothian Tory MSP Miles Briggs, who said it was a waste of taxpayers’ money having to run two hospitals at the same time.
He said: “These are huge chunks of money which the health board has been forced to spend on running two hospitals because of the delay with the new building.
“People understand that – patients need to have that reliable health service available – but this is a situation which should have been avoided.” ....

Scotland's new Health Secretary urged to visit Edinburgh's Eye Pavilion to see for himself urgent need for a replacement


“I think he should come and visit the current site to really see the need for the Eye Pavilion to be replaced as soon as possible.”
Plans for a replacement eye hospital next to the Royal Infirmary at Little France were agreed in principle in 2018, but the government told NHS Lothian in December 2020 it would not fund the project, prompting a public outcry and cross-party calls for a rethink.
During the election campaign, Nicola Sturgeon said the SNP would after all fund a replacement – and she repeated the pledge when she set out the government’s priorities in the Scottish Parliament. ....

His intervention, just days before the Holyrood elections, comes as Dr Hector Chawla, the consultant responsible for the sight-saving surgery in 1971, sets out in today’s Scotsman why the proposal to disperse services, put forward by the government as an alternative to a new hospital, would not work.
The government told NHS Lothian in December it would not fund a new hospital “now or in the foreseeable future” despite agreeing in principle to the project in 2018 and allowing more than £1 million to be spent on planning the new building. Instead, it said NHS Lothian should review eyecare services, suggesting community optometrists could take a bigger role and operations could be carried out at a new elective centre in Livingston yet to be built. ....
