Mr. Norman Lamont

Provision for the NHS in the United Kingdom will be about £2,400 million higher in 1990–91 than 1989–90. In addition, the Health Service will have available some £200 million extra cash released by a new round of cost improvement programmes and income generation. The expenditure plans for 1990–91 assume that rather over £250 million of the increase will be available for implementation in England of the NHS review proposals. Expenditure on implementation of the NHS review in Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland will be decided in due course by the respective Secretaries of State.
