Health service procurement in Wales

The Welsh Government want your views on proposed changes to the way health services, provided as part of the NHS, are procured in Wales.

They are consulting on:

• how a new health service procurement regime for Wales could operate
• should it operate in the same way or differ from, how England procure health services

Your feedback will help the Welsh Government to create the legislation and statutory guidance for a new health service procurement regime. NHS Wales and local authorities in Wales will be able to use the regime.

Further information can also be found on The Welsh Government website https://www.gov.wales/health-service-procurement-wales

Please feel free to circulate this consultation to fellow RCN members, RCN networks, forums, and colleagues.

To allow time for our authorisation process we would need to receive any comments by 5pm on 9 February 2024.
