This is an exciting week for me! (I know, it’s sad but I live in a small world). My first three posts this week will reflect on different aspects of the draft mandate for the NHS that the Secretary of State launched last Wednesday, and on Thursday I will review Nick Timmins’ publication on the NHS reform programme Never Again.
The unifying theme for the week is a growing set of insights into the way in which the current Secretary of State thinks about the way in which change in the NHS happens. Nick’s pamphlet gives us a whole range of insights into the world according to Andrew. But so does the way in which he is introducing the mandate to the NHS.
