Treasury written question – answered at on 16 July 2007.
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer
(1) whether the Prime Minister's Delivery Unit has conducted a review of financial management in the NHS;
(2) pursuant to the answer of 27 June 2007, Official Report, column 747W, on Delivery Unit, if he will place in the Library a copy of the guidance on conducting joint reviews for use in training staff;
(3) what the subject was of all joint reviews carried out by the Prime Minister's Delivery Unit in each financial year since 2001-02.
PMDU has not conducted a review of financial management in the NHS, though it has worked with the Treasury and the Department of Health on a joint review of balancing DH funding and expenditure.
I will ensure a copy of the PMDU's guidance on conducting joint reviews is placed in the Library.
