Request
Thanks very much for the response to my enquiry. I’ve been asked if it may also be possible to obtain projected figures for 2011/12 for questions 1) and 2).
Our Response
I refer to your email requesting further information in respect of projected figures for GP budgets and training.
I can confirm in accordance with S.1 (1) of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA) that we do not hold the information that you have requested. This is because we are working towards a deadline of end of October 2010 to complete draft 2011-12 baseline budgets. Final 2011-12 budgets are due to be completed by the end of February 2011.
The 2011-12 indicative figures should be available in November 2010 with the 2011-12 final budgets, subject to NHS East Midlands Board approval, in early March 2011. The 2011-12 final budgets should be approved by NHS East Midlands Board in April/May 2011.
