Only a very small proportion of shifts are ever left vacant \u2013 where a substantive staff member is not in place, nurse leaders are able to utilise bank and agency staff to ensure they provide high quality care to their patients.

The proposed regulation changes do not \u2018create\u2019 Accountable Care Organisations (ACOs). It is the awarding of an ACO contract by local commissioners that would create an ACO. The regulations simply ensure that current rules continue to apply to any ACO contract. NHS England has promised to publicly consult on the ACO contract before it is used anywhere in the NHS.<\/p>
The Department will not bring forward legislation until NHS England has consulted on the draft ACO contract.<\/p>"}

Latest data shows that over two million people were seen in accident and emergency (A&E) in December 2017 and despite increasing demand, nearly nine out of 10 people are assessed and then admitted, transferred or discharged within four hours. The National Health Service is now seeing over 1,800 more patients within four hours every single day compared to 2009/10.<\/p>
The Government has given the NHS an additional £1.6 billion to support and improve performance. The investment will be used to treat a quarter of a million more patients in A&E and for improved A&E performance, with the overall four hour standard achieved within the course of next year.<\/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" : "2018-02-06", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-02-06T16:14:41.967Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "17"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Health and Social Care"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2018-02-06", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Accident and Emergency Departments: Standards"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "What progress the NHS has made on meeting the A&E waiting time target by March 2018.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/163", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Sir Stephen Timms"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "East Ham"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Stephen Timms"} ], "uin" : "903790"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/837681", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department of Health and Social Care"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/837681/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
