The recommendations in this paper build on close engagement with more than 100 stakeholders representing all parts of the health and care system. Officials have recently met with the National Children’s Bureau to discuss the paper’s proposals for integrating care and will continue to have discussions with a range of stakeholders representing children and young people, their families and carers and other patient groups.
