Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how many NHS (a) integrated care systems and (b) trusts were in deficit at the end of the 2023-24 financial year; and if she will publish a breakdown of those figures by (i) acute, (ii) mental health, (iii) community health, (iv) ambulance services and (v) other types of trust.
The final year-end financial position for the integrated care boards, National Health Service trusts, and foundation trusts has not yet been finalised. All figures are due to be audited and will be reported in the accounts for all organisations, as well as in the Department’s 2023/24 Annual Report and Accounts, to be published later this year.
