To ask the Scottish Executive whether it has estimated the cost of redundancy payments for the proposed 25% reduction in senior managers in the NHS.
Answer
No. There is a commitment to no compulsory redundancies in NHSScotland. If individual boards choose to approve redundancies on a voluntary basis they would be responsible for identifying and justifying the costs incurred. Any such costs would depend entirely on individual circumstances.

To ask the Scottish Executive whether it plans to evaluate the performance of community health partnerships and community health and care partnerships.
Answer
1. Community health partnerships are not separate statutory bodies. They are committees or sub-committees of NHS boards and are accountable for their performance to NHS boards. Where an NHS board and local authority have established a community health and care partnership then both the NHS board and local authority monitor their performance.
2. The Scottish Government commissioned independent research into the progress that community health partnerships and community health and care partnerships have made since their inception. The report was published in May 2010.

To ask the Scottish Executive whether NHS boards have been given an indication of their likely capital allocation for 2011-12 and, if so, what this is for each NHS board.
