NHS England is no longer funding commercial or trade waste services for practices
NHS England is no longer funding commercial or trade waste services for practices.
The Premises Directions 2013, Part 5, paragraph 46 (1) (b) lists the payments NHS England has a duty to make, this excludes the collection and disposal of Commercial/Trade waste.
NHS England (London) wrote to affected practices at the end of September giving notice of this change. If you are not one of the practices that received a letter, but you have claimed in the past, please note that claims in future will not be accepted.
If you have any questions with regards this letter, please email nhscb.lon-sth-pcc@nhs.net.
