APPENDIX 5

CRITICAL OTHER INFRASTRUCTURE NEEDED IN SOUTH HAMPSHIRE

Infrastructure requirements for South Hampshire have been assessed through information gathered for "Towards a Strategy for South Hampshire - Infrastructure Investment (2004) and from the stakeholder workshops, the agencies' responses to the consultation options and subsequent contacts. The information will need to be amended as more information becomes available and decisions about the detailed distribution of housing are made.

For brevity, this appendix lists only the items of infrastructure required and their costs (where known). More details of the justification for those infrastructure items, the financial estimates and the sources of the information are in a separate background paper.

Health

Definitive infrastructure list yet to be defined on basis of-

· 1 General Practitioner (GP) per 1,800 to 2,500 total population (Practices generally 5 GPs, trend towards larger practices with extended range of services).Capital costs £0.5million per GP. New premises will be required to meet increased populations (where new or expanded communities proposed).

· Primary and Community Care centres will provide extended range of services currently carried out in acute hospital settings. Typically might serve 50,000 to 100,000 population - costs £12-£15 million.

· Over 65s Health and Social Care - one rehabilitation bed per additional 1,000 over 65s - capital cost approx £250,000 per bed. Located on existing hospital sites.

CRITICAL "OTHER INFRASTRUCTURE" NEEDED IN NORTH HAMPSHIRE

The non-transport infrastructure requirements for North Hampshire (Basingstoke (part), Hart and Rushmoor) set out below are largely based on work being undertaken for the Western Corridor and Blackwater Valley Sub-Regional Strategy together with additional information provided by individual local authority officers. It represents the first stage in the process of identifying these infrastructure needs and will be revised as more information becomes available and decisions about the detailed distribution of housing are made.

For brevity, this appendix lists only the items of infrastructure required and their costs (where known). More details of the justification for those infrastructure items, the financial estimates and the sources of the information are in a separate background paper.

Health

Definitive infrastructure list yet to be defined on basis that:-

· each additional 20,000 population generates a need for an enhanced GP practice at a capital cost of £3.5 millions.

· each additional 1,000 population generates a need for:

    _ 1.8 acute hospital beds at £350,000 each

    _ 0.9 geriatric or maternity beds at £200,000 each

    _ 0.6 mental health beds at £250,000 each. Each has associated revenue costs.
