The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, which of NHS England's responsibility will not be brought into the Department of Health and Social Care, following NHS England's abolition.

Answered by Karin Smyth

Ministers and senior Department officials will work with the new transformation team at the top of NHS England, led by Sir Jim Mackey, to determine the structure and requirements needed to support the creation of a new centre for health and care.

At this stage, while we are scoping the programme, it is too early to say what the precise changes in organisational design will be.
