1. The Committee launched its inquiry into Public
Expenditure in July 2010. The Committee received 27 written memoranda
and held four oral evidence sessions, with officials from the
Department of Health; the NHS Confederation, the Local Government
Association (LGA), and the Association of Directors of Adult Social
Services (Adass); the British Medical Association (BMA), Royal
College of Nursing (RCN), and UNISON; and the Secretary of State
for Health. The Specialist Adviser to the inquiry was Professor
John Appleby, Chief Economist, Health Policy, at the King's Fund
and we are grateful to him for his assistance with our work.
