Health Services: Greater Manchester and South Yorkshire
Asked by: Lord Scriven (Liberal Democrat - Life peer) Monday 20th April 2026 Question to the Department of Health and Social Care: To ask His Majesty's Government what executive powers will be held by the newly appointed Mayoral Health Commissioners in Greater Manchester and South Yorkshire; and how these roles will facilitate improvements in health outcomes in the absence of formal powers over NHS Integrated Care Boards. Answered by Baroness Merron - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department of Health and Social Care) My Rt Hon. Friend, the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, recently announced plans for NHS England to appoint new National Health Service integrated care board chairs in Greater Manchester and South Yorkshire, who will also serve as the Mayor’s Health Commissioner. The English Devolution and Community Empowerment Bill allows a commissioner to be delegated some functions of the combined authority, if considered necessary. Reporting jointly to the health service and democratically elected local mayors, these new leaders will be expected to mobilise partners locally to improve health outcomes for the local population, including by supporting delivery of the three key shifts we have set out in the 10-Year Plan: from hospital to community; from sickness to prevention; and from analogue to digital. No additional NHS performance indicators have been set centrally. |
