Dear Board Commissioning (NHS COMMISSIONING BOARD),

This FOI request is now overdue. Could you please let me have your response or a reason for the delay

Yours sincerely,

Terry Hallworth

Board Commissioning (NHS COMMISSIONING BOARD), NHS England

Dear Mr Hallworth,

Thank you for your email of 4 January 2013 in which you requested we clarify whether the new Commissioning Consortiums will be subject to the Freedom of Information (FOI) Act.

Please can I confirm in response, Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs, which used to be referred to as Commissioning Consortiums) following authorisation will be subject to the FOI Act.

I trust this sufficiently answers your question.

Kind regards
