Applications South Kent Coast CCG has made for s106 money.
On Valentine’s Day we mentioned in the second half of our post that the NHS South Kent Coast CCG took on responsibility for making the applications for s106 when they became delegated; which was from 1st April 2017 onwards.
Since April 1st 2017 the South Kent Coast CCG have made 14 applications for s106 money. However,

No money has been secured by South Kent Coast CCG for any applications made to date and so practices have not received any contributions, however listed below are the details of the applications the CCG has made since they took on responsibility:
So in the Shepway area – as the South Kent Coast CCG also covers swathes of the Dover District too, we can see that a sum of £352,152 will, once secured, be allocated to an extension of the Oaklands Surgery in Hythe (pictured) and an unspecified site in Folkestone. The rest of the money, once secured, will be allocated to other surgeries across the area covered by the South Kent Coast CCG.

Most s106 agreements allow for the following improvements:

The expansion of health premises to provide addition facilities and services to meet increased patient or user numbers. (Only three surgeries saw a decrease in numbers in 2017)
-
New health premises or services at local level
-
Any new facility to compensate for the loss of a health facility caused by development.
