Local Authorities to gain statutory powers to join with health

July 28, 2010

The Health White Paper has confirmed the end of Primary Care Trusts by 2013.  With the lead health role now transferring to GP’s the Coalition Minister Paul Burstow has confirmed that “Local Authorities will be given access to resources that will be reallocated to the public health aspect of their new role.”  The Minster has confirmed in a recent interview with Community Care that new Boards will be established by 2012 to take on the the function of joining up the commissioning of local NHS services, social care, and health improvements.    In addition indications are that the recently announced review of health and social care regulations will lead to further reductions in regulations and idenitifed ‘red tape’.
