Health written question – answered at on 12 October 2011.
To ask the Secretary of State for Health with reference to his letter to the right hon. Member for Wentworth and Dearne of 7 December 2010, what the reason is for the time taken to commence the franchise of Hinchingbrooke NHS Trust.
The business case for the appointment of the proposed preferred bidder for the management franchise at Hinchingbrooke Health Care NHS Trust is currently with the Government for consideration. This has taken longer then expected to review, but it is important to emphasise the significance of this business case in terms of the new model of contract and financial transaction involved, requiring a full and considered analysis.
A decision is now expected very shortly.
