A year older this week and full of arthritic twinges, I think I need to start saving for my hip replacement surgery now - Hounslow PCT won't have dug itself out of its financial hole any time in the next twenty years.
I have just been trawling the Hounslow PCT website to find its Autumn Statement which should have been published by 30 September. Such a thing in Hounslow, I'm sure, does not exist.
So £340million from the Department for Children Schools & Families, matched by £340million from the Department of Health. Hounslow's share of the DCSF funding is nearly £1.4million, and so far a mere £40,000 has been identified within the PCT.
This has a flavour of theft about it.
