NHS England, as the accountable commissioner for radiotherapy services, is responsible for setting evidence-based national service standards for radiotherapy, including service specifications and clinical commissioning policies. These arrangements will be further strengthened by the establishment of nine specialised commissioning joint statutory committees, which will bring regional specialised commissioning expertise and integrated care systems together.
