Ministers warned over NHS schemes
Ministers must keep a closer eye on big NHS building projects after incompetent local health chiefs caused the collapse of a £900m scheme, MPs have said.

The public accounts committee said the government had left the Paddington Health Campus project to local managers who were "out of their depth".

The project, designed to merge three north-west London hospitals, was abandoned after costs rose by £300m.

The government said it had already introduced tighter checks on schemes.
