The Board of NHS Lanarkshire will meet on Wednesday, 16 December to consider a preferred option for the site of the new University Hospital Monklands.

The three site options for the Monklands Replacement Project (MRP) are (in alphabetical order): Gartcosh; Glenmavis; Wester Moffat.

Any recommendation on a preferred site will be put forward to the Cabinet Secretary for Health and Sport, Jeane Freeman, who will make a final decision.

Neena Mahal, Chair of the Board of NHS Lanarkshire, said: “We would like to thank the public and our staff for their participation during the extensive engagement process on the Monklands Replacement Project.

“The community’s valuable feedback on the three site options will be among a set of detailed information that will be fully considered by the Board in determining its recommendation for a preferred site.”
