The ICB is responsible for planning strategically, specifying outcomes, procuring services, and managing demand and provider performance in relation to CHC. The services commissioned must include ongoing case management, including review or reassessment of the individual’s needs.</p><p>NHS England holds ICBs accountable, and engages with them to ensure that they discharge their functions via timely and well-established assurance mechanisms.

UK Visas and Immigration would take action to investigate the sponsor who has failed to comply with their duties. This may result in a sponsor having their licence revoked, therefore losing their ability to recruit staff from overseas. We have published guidance for prospective overseas candidates to help them make informed decisions and prepare for life in the United Kingdom. The guidance sets out: what candidates should check in their employment contracts before signing; what working rights and standards they can expect in the UK; and how to recognise and deal with exploitation.</p> answering member constituency Faversham and Mid Kent answering member printed Helen Whately question first answered 22/02/2024 15:43:09 answering member 4527 label Biography information for Helen Whately
