Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health, how much funding NHS Improvement has received for the 2016-17 financial year; how many staff that body employs; and how much funding each of the organisations that body has superseded received in each of the preceding five financial years.

NHS Improvement has an agreed budget of £166 million for the 2016/17 financial year and, as at 30 September, employs 913 people. Funding for the National Health Service Trust Development Authority (NHS TDA) and Monitor for the five proceeding years is provided in the table below. No figure is provided for NHS TDA against 2011/12 as the organisation had not been established.

The figures in the table above represent non-ring-fenced revenue and capital funding. Ring-fenced and annually managed expenditure budgets are not included.
