answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 15/11/2018 answer text <p>The Trust Special Administration (TSA) Regime is a bespoke, time-limited measure to address failure in National Health Service foundation trusts or NHS trusts. The TSA Regime introduced the role of Trust Special Administrator who would take over the failed trust with a dual role of running it and making recommendations for a sustainable long-term solution for its services.</p><p> </p><p>The Regime is intended to be used as a measure of last resort and under specific circumstances. Consequently, the Regime is likely to be used sparingly. There are a range of other measures which can be applied before the Regime is considered.</p><p> </p><p>The power to place NHS foundation trusts into the TSA regime sits with Monitor which is now part of NHS Improvement. The power for placing NHS trusts into TSA sits with the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care.</p> answering member constituency North East Cambridgeshire answering member printed Stephen Barclay question first answered 15/11/2018 10:51:03 answering member 4095 label Biography information for Steve Barclay

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/11/2018 answer text <p>The Department and entities within its accounting boundary report on the basis of European Union Adopted International Financial Reporting Standards as interpreted and adapted for the public sector by HM Treasury’s Financial Reporting Manual.</p><p> </p><p>Debt is not a specific classification of liability that is reported by entities including National Health Service foundation trusts.</p><p> </p><p>To provide a total liability amount for NHS foundation trusts, either current and payable within 12 months or non-current and due to be settled beyond 12 months from the end of the financial year, would therefore include items which the Department would not expect to be viewed as debt.</p><p> </p><p>For this reason, the Department has interpreted the term ‘debt’ to refer to outstanding balances on loans both with the Department and with Other Entities. The attached table identifies the total level of loans outstanding for NHS foundation trusts as at 31 March 2018, on a current and non-current basis.</p><p> </p><p>Loans held with the Department are eliminated on consolidation to arrive at the Group’s Consolidated Statement of Financial Position. As part of presenting a consolidated set of accounts, all intra group activity (including income, expenditure, assets and liabilities generated by intra group trading) is eliminated, so as to not overstate the Group position. For individual NHS foundation trusts these loans with the Department represent a debt, but this is not the case in regards to the Group position presented in the Department’s Annual Report and Accounts as balances held and transactions related to the loans held are eliminated.</p> answering member constituency North East Cambridgeshire answering member printed Stephen Barclay question first answered 14/11/2018 16:13:24 answering member 4095 label Biography information for Steve Barclay attachment 1 file name PQ189765 formatted table.docx title PQ189765 attached table
