Overall poistive signs for the proposed new arrangements for the relevant national Primary Care bodies. However, GP consortia need to start with a clean slate and not inherit current PCT debts.

In addition there should be a minimum size for GP consortia nationally and they should inculde local NHS Trust clinical leads so that joint working on commissioning is built in to their work programmes from day one.

Finally the allowance per registered patients needs to be carefully set so that those with the greatest need and with the highest levels of local deprivation are not penailised. Neil Jessop
