<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
We expect this to be made public in due course. Following that, it will be for the CCG and NHS England to determine the next steps, including the detail of any future announcements.<\/p>

Work based on this support is ongoing in each of the local health economies.

Monitor, the NHS Trust Development Authority and NHS England jointly commissioned work to support the 11 local health economies (LHEs) that were identified as being financially challenged, including Devon.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
We are advised that consultancy firms (in Devon\u2019s case, Pricewaterhouse Coopers) were not commissioned to produce a report as described in the question, but to support the LHEs with the development and strengthening of their strategic plans.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
Work based on this support is ongoing, and a number of steps have to be taken in each of the LHEs. These include the consideration of strategic plans, consultations on possible reforms and the implementation of recommendations flowing from this. It would not be appropriate to release information ahead of these steps.<\/p>
