To ask the Secretary of State for Health, if he will ensure that there will be no appointments to a single management board prior to any clinical commissioning group mergers until the situation that resulted in commissioning the Kirkup report has been satisfactorily resolved.
To ask the Secretary of State for Health, if he will ensure that there will be no appointments to a single management board prior to any clinical commissioning group mergers until the situation that resulted in commissioning the Kirkup report has been satisfactorily resolved.
Clinical commissioning groups (CCGs) are independent statutory bodies set out in statute, and as such are responsible for recruiting and selecting their leadership team. The appointment of Accountable Officers by CCGs requires authorisation by NHS England. If as suggested the CCGs seek to create a joint management team with a single Accountable Officer shared across two or three CCGs, this will be subject to NHS England's approval. NHS England’s process for such appointments is set out in guidance published in March 2017.
There are provisions under section 14G of the NHS Act 2006 (as amended) allowing for mergers of CCGs and there are specific legal factors that NHS England must consider when deciding whether or not to agree the merger.

Notes:
- From April 2014, NHS England published provisional never events data as monthly updates throughout each financial year. Each report updates the previous month’s data as information on never events is reported or amended.
- The provisional monthly never events data summaries for 2015/16 have been drawn from the STEIS system. Each report includes all Serious Incidents reported as occurring within the indicated timeframe, where they are designated by their reporters as never events at the date the data was extracted. Please note these reports are provisional data and subject to change.
- As of 1 April 2016, patient safety is now part of NHS Improvement. Never events data publications for 2016/17 financial year and onwards will be published by NHS Improvement.
The suffering of constituents of mine such as Liza Brady, Simon Davey and James Titcombe, who lost their babies at Furness general hospital, is hard to imagine. They have had years of struggle to get to the point yesterday where the Kirkup report put through a host of recommendations, both for our local hospital and for the wider NHS. Will the Prime Minister honour their struggle today by saying that the Government will implement those recommendations in full?

It is a very important report, which is why the Health Secretary made the statement that he did. We want to see many of these changes put in place. Where we have problems in our NHS—we saw
them in Mid Staffs and in the case that the hon. Gentleman mentions—it is important that we do not sweep them under the carpet; we need to be open and honest about them. We should send in the inspectors with the newly beefed-up Care Quality Commission. We have this new post of chief inspector of hospitals, which brings focus
to the whole organisation, and we need to work out how to turn a hospital around; how to put it into special measures; and how to get things fixed so that these tragedies do not happen again. My heart goes out to all those people who have lost their children as a result of things that should never have happened in our country.
