PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Commissioning Support Units (12 July 2017)

To ask the Secretary of State for Health, with reference to the Answer of 7 March 2017 to Question 65785, on commissioning support units, if he will set out the timetable for a formal decision on the autonomy of such units.

Asked by:
Karin Smyth (Labour)

The decision on whether to make Commissioning Support Units autonomous has been deferred until NHS England has decided how these units can be best positioned to support Sustainability and Transformation Partnerships and the move to develop Accountable Care Systems. They expect to be in a position to consider this later this year.
