My right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Health has received no representations from the Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust on the level of their funding for 2010-11.
The Department does not make revenue allocations directly to foundation trusts. It is for primary care trusts to use the funding allocated to them to commission services from foundation trusts and other providers to meet the needs of their local populations.
The information requested is not collected centrally.
The Department does not make revenue allocations directly to foundation trusts. It is for primary care trusts (PCTs) to use the funding allocated to them to commission services from foundation trusts and other providers to meet the needs of their local populations.
PCTs have been informed of their revenue allocations up to 2010-11. The allocations to PCTs in Gloucestershire from 2004-05 are shown in the following table.
£ million 2004-05 2005-06 2006-07 2007-08 2008-09 2009-10 2010-11 Gloucestershire PCT 515.9 561.9 669.7 731.2 771.1 825.9 868.5 South Gloucestershire PCT 188.3 205.9 250.2 275.2 290.2 323.1 339.7 Notes: 1.

PCTs allocations for 2011-12 onwards are yet to be determined. However, as announced in the pre-Budget report in December 2009, front-line national health service spending will be protected for the following two years to 2012-13.
