NHS England publishes clinical commissioning group (CCG) allocations on its website. The published CCG allocations for NHS Blackburn and Darwen Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) for the past five years for core services are set out in the table below. It should be noted that these figures are as published, and do not reflect any adjustments that may have occurred since the time of publication.<\/p>

<\/p>

The allocation of funding to local CCGs is informed by the estimation of the relative health needs of local areas, based on a set of funding formulae. This formulae produce a target allocation, or 'fair share' for each area, based on a complex assessment of factors such as demography, morbidity, deprivation, and the unavoidable cost of providing services in different areas.<\/p>

The historic medical expansion of 1,500 additional medical school places in England will help ensure the National Health Service has enough doctors to continue to provide safe, compassionate care in the future. As part of this expansion, five brand new medical schools have been announced, including Edge Hill University, University of Sunderland, Anglia Ruskin University, University of Lincoln and Canterbury Christ Church University.<\/p>

<\/p>

As part of the bidding process for the allocation of new medical school places, bids from universities were assessed against the following priorities:<\/p>

- widening participation and improving access so that the medical workforce is more representative of the population it serves;<\/p>

- aligning expansion to local NHS workforce need with an emphasis on priority geographical areas, including rural and coastal areas;<\/p>

- supporting general practice and other shortage specialties so that the NHS can deliver services required to meet patient need;<\/p>

- ensuring sufficient provision of high quality training and clinical placements; and<\/p>

- encouraging innovation and market liberalisation.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4095", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Steve Barclay"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "North East Cambridgeshire"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Stephen Barclay"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2018-03-26", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-03-26T15:48:33.463Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "17"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2018-03-20", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Doctors: Training"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how many doctors were (a) trained to specialise in addiction services and (b) entered the addiction services workforce in each year since 2010; and if he will make a statement.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4036", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Luciana Berger"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Liverpool, Wavertree"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Luciana Berger"} ], "uin" : "133529"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/867590", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department of Health and Social Care"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/867590/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
