In April 2016 NHS England held a second public consultation called Developing a Method to Assist Investment Decisions in Specialised Services. This consultation set out a method that it was proposed would be used by the Clinical Priorities Advisory Group when making recommendations on investment decisions for 2016/17. NHS England’s response to consultation (June 2016) confirmed that the method would be adopted for 2016/17 and it described how learning from that year’s commissioning round would inform the development of the method for future years, including through further stakeholder engagement where appropriate. Published documents relating to this consultation are:
