The Secretary of State for Health (Mr Jeremy Hunt)
I promised to update the House about the investigations into Jimmy Savile and the NHS in my written statement on 14 October 2013, Official Report, column 39WS.
The Metropolitan Police Service has completed its document review and transferred various material concerning Jimmy Savile and the NHS to the Department of Health. The information has been passed on to the relevant hospital trust for further investigation as appropriate. Names of the hospitals are taken from the information received. These include hospitals that may have closed in which case the information has been passed on to the legacy organisation.
Kate Lampard, who was asked to provide independent assurance of the NHS investigations on behalf of the Department of Health, will provide general assurance of the quality of all reports in her final assurance report. We expect the final reports of all the investigations to be completed by June 2014, with publication sooner if that is possible.
Information has been passed on by the Department to the 19 trusts who have responsibility for the relevant hospitals as set out in the table below:
