<p>The 2022/23 year-end debt position of each individual organisation in the National
Health Service will be confirmed in their individual balance sheets included in their
accounts due to be published later this year. The Department does not hold in-year
reporting data on debt.</p><p>The 2023/24 forecast surplus/deficit position against
budget for individual integrated care systems (ICSs) will be agreed as part of the
operational planning process between NHS England and ICSs which is currently ongoing.
Draft plans are being resubmitted to NHS England and will be shared with the Department
when they are finalised. We therefore do not currently have the information to show
whether any ICS is planning to end 2023/24 with a deficit against their agreed budget.</p>
