He is worried about the "significant safeguarding concerns" that might affect vulnerable people due to the clustering of regional health commissioners. This comes after NHS Chief Executive James Mackey announced a "big consolidation" following a demand for a 50 per cent reduction in running costs by December. The "financial reset" has resulted in almost half of NHS Trusts cutting services, and Integrated Care Boards (ICBs) are expected to make similar cuts, resulting in 12,500 job losses. Mr Anderson is concerned about how this could affect collaboration with the police in safeguarding vulnerable residents. "I have called on Ministers to ensure that any changes are consistent with local geographies and safeguarding is prioritised."
