Matthew Taylor welcomes move that provides certainty to NHS leaders who can now go ahead with planned redundancies.
Responding to the Secretary of State’s plans to redirect billions of pounds from NHS reform back into patient care, Matthew Taylor, chief executive of the NHS Confederation, said:
“This is a welcome move that provides certainty to NHS leaders who can now go ahead with planned redundancies.
“It has been a difficult period of uncertainty for our members and we know this has placed a strain on staff.
“We’ll await the full details but for now we are pleased to see that this situation has been resolved and that we can proceed with the redundancy programme. This will provide clarity for staff and help release savings down the line.”
