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>
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>
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>"}

The Medical Director of NHS England, Professor Steve Powis, and the Chief Medical Officer, Professor Dame Sally Davies, have written to relevant clinicians to coincide with the coming into force of the rescheduling of cannabis-based medicinal products. The guidance in this letter, which signposts interim clinical advice commissioned from the British Paediatric Neurology Association and the Royal College of Physicians, is in line with normal clinical practice. The decision to prescribe cannabis-based products for medicinal use will be made on a case-by-case basis, based on clinical need and in-line with existing governance procedures for prescribing unlicensed medicines.<\/p>
<\/p>
The Department has commissioned the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence to produce clinical guidance by October 2019, which will update and replace the interim advice.<\/p>"}

Building the Right Support, published in October 2015, set out the national plan to develop community services for people with learning disability and autism who are mental health inpatients, so they can leave hospital and receive more appropriate care and enjoy better outcomes in the community. This reduces the need for specialist inpatient beds.<\/p>
<\/p>
140 beds (59% of the original total) at the Merseycare Whalley site, formerly known as Calderstones Hospital, have been closed by National Health Service commissioners over the last five years. The safety of patients remains the over-riding priority for the NHS, so appropriate support needs to be in place for everyone to ensure a smooth transition to any new care package or facility before beds are closed. Discussions about the timescales for formal closure of the site are ongoing.<\/p>
<\/p>
The attached table shows the reductions in numbers of beds in each of the fast-track Transforming Care Partnerships referred to in the Building the Right Support publication.<\/p>
<\/p>
During 2016/17, all Transforming Care Partnerships published local transformation plans.<\/p>
<\/p>
NHS England has commissioned an evaluation of progress made since publication of Building the Right Support. The report is expected to be published in 2019. Latest figures from NHS Digital show around a 19% reduction in people with a learning disability, autism or both in an inpatient setting from March 2015.<\/p>

As with the vast majority of NHS services, the funding and commissioning of palliative and end of life care, is a local matter, over which individual National Health Service commissioners have responsibility. Local commissioners are best placed to understand the needs of local populations and commission services to meet those needs accordingly.<\/p>
<\/p>
As part of the £20.5 billion a year for the NHS, NHS England is working with the Department to develop a long-term plan, details of which will be published later this year. End of life care is an important part of the proposals and NHS England will continue working with key stakeholders to test the plan before its publication.<\/p>"}
