NHS England published its full Planning Guidance on Thursday 10 January 2019, replacing the Preparatory Guidance published in December 2018.

The guidance sets out full operational plan requirements, covering system planning, the financial settlement, and the process and timescales around the submission of CCG, NHS Provider and system plans. It was published along with five-year indicative CCG allocations. We have produced this slidepack to summarise and help make sense of the guidance.
