Prevention, population health and prosperity: a new era in devolution
In spring 2023, the NHS Confederation and Local Government Association jointly established a Health and Devolution Working Group to understand the priorities, opportunities and challenges in bringing together health and local government devolution. This report builds on the rich learning from the working group and sets out why integrated care systems and devolved administrations should work together to jointly improve health and support economic prosperity, how they can maximise their collective impact for their shared populations, and what government needs to do to support and accelerate the health and devolution agenda in future.
