D Hillman (Letters, January 17) is spot on. Is there anybody who still thinks the current hospital plan is preferable to a new one on a new site, preferably adjacent to the universities and medical school?

I have lived in three cities where a new hospital was the preferred option: Nottingham, Hastings and Ipswich. So why not here? When a wrong decision is made, pouring good money after bad to save face is always a mistake.
