Hospitals Merger
___________________________________________________________________________
Ashford & St. Peter's Hospital NHS Foundation Trust
Royal Surrey County Hospital NHS Foundation Trust
____________________________________________________
October 2015
As you may be aware, Ashford and St Peter’s Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and the Royal Surrey County Hospital NHS Foundation Trust are proposing to merge.  We have recently received final clearance on our proposed merger from the Competitions and Markets Authority which means we can now proceed with the next stage in our planning.

Our proposal to merge is based around securing a stronger future for our two organisations which will allow us to deliver a number of important patient benefits, including more consultant care at weekends and increased investment in facilities and technology. This was recognised by the CMA during their investigation which highlighted the commitment and professional pride in the provision of high quality care by the staff of our organisations.

The next stage in the process will be for both Boards from both Trusts to consider the full business case and detailed financial plans for the proposed merger and to make their decision on the next step forward. Subject to their approval the process will then include an assessment by Monitor, the health sector regulator, and at a later stage, final approvals from Boards and Councils of Governors.

Subject to full regulatory, Board and Governor approvals, the earliest start date for the proposed new organisation would be Summer 2016.

In the meantime, we would like to talk to as many local stakeholders and residents about our plans and answer any questions that you may have.  We are really interested to hear your views and any concerns you may have.  We welcome any invitations to attend your group meetings.

Please contact comms@asph.nhs.uk or rsc-tr.membership@nhs.net or telephone 01932 723800 to arrange a meeting. 

Yours sincerely
Aileen McLeish

 CMA GIVES FINAL CLEARANCE TO PROPOSED HOSPITAL MERGER

15 September 2015

The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) issued their final clearance for the proposed merger between Ashford & St Peter’s Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and Royal Surrey County Hospital NHS Foundation Trust. 

Following an in-depth investigation and the publication of their provisional clearance last month, the CMA has now formally concluded that the proposed merger, if completed, will not give rise to a substantial lessening of competition for patients and means the Trusts are now able to move forward to the next stage.
