All providers qualifying to provide continence services under Any Qualified Provider will be required to agree to the terms and conditions of the NHS Standard Contract. To qualify, providers will need to demonstrate that they meet robust criteria assessing quality as determined by commissioners.
All providers awarded contracts under Any Qualified Provider will have their continence services monitored through normal contract management arrangements. Providers qualified to provide continence services under Any Qualified Provider will be reviewed annually.
The last national report of the ‘National Audit of Continence Care: Combined Organisational and Clinical Report’ was published in September 2010 and is available at:
www.hqip.org.uk/assets/Guidance/FULL-COMBINED-organisational-and-clinical-report-2-09-10.pdf
Further work has since been carried out to evaluate the 2010 audit, through seeking feedback from audit participants and the completion of a pilot audit to incorporate suggested changes. The report ‘Capturing patients' experience of NHS continence services: pilot phase evaluation report’ is available at:
www.hqip.org.uk/assets/NCAPOP-Library/NCAPOP-2012-13/Continence-pilot-audit-on-patients-experience-published-Aug-2012.pdf
A second pilot audit was also conducted on the feasibility of capturing information directly from patients on their experience of the continence care they received. Reports from both of the pilot audit were published in August this year. This report, National audit of continence care: Pilot audit evaluation report’, is available at:
www.hqip.org.uk/assets/NCAPOP-Library/NCAPOP-2012-13/Continence-pilot-audit-evaluation-report-published-Aug-2012.pdf
The results from the pilot audits will help to inform the commissioning of any further national audit required for continence care. A range of stakeholders will be consulted prior to commissioning a further national audit including patient representatives, clinical experts and experts in quality improvement methodology.
From April 2013, the NHS Commissioning Board will fund the National Clinical Audit and Patient Outcomes Programme and will be responsible for setting its strategic direction.
To ask the Secretary of State for Health by what means the NHS Commissioning Board monitors the implementation of the diabetes quality standard by local clinical commissioning groups.

The National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) published quality standards for diabetes in 2011. It is currently for primary care trusts to ensure that NICE quality standards are taken account of when commissioning services..
We also have a best practice tariff for paediatric diabetes since April 2012, and we are awaiting confirmation of best practice tariffs for diabetic ketoacidosis and hypoglycaemia in adults. If confirmed these best practice tariffs will take effect from April 2013.
The Health and Social Care Act (2012) makes it clear that the Secretary of State for Health, the right hon. Member for South Cambridgeshire (Mr Lansley), and NHS Commissioning Board, in discharging their duties to improve the quality of health services:
"must have regard to the quality standards prepared by. NICE".
The NHS Commissioning Board (NHS CB) will be expected to use NHS Quality Standards to develop the Commissioning Outcomes Framework (COF) and as the basis for producing guidance for commissioners.
The COF will drive up quality improvement by .allowing clinical commissioning groups to benchmark their progress and by providing clear comparative information on quality and outcomes to patients and the public. The COF will allow the NHS CB to identify the contribution of clinical commissioning groups to achieving the priorities for health improvement in the NHS Outcomes Framework, while also being accountable to patients and local communities.

Although the National Service Framework for Diabetes has now reached the end of its intended reference period, many of the ambitions expressed through that framework continue to be relevant.
We understand that the designate directors and chief executive of the NHS Commissioning Board are currently considering further steps to improve outcomes for national health service patients with diabetes. We expect that they will contribute to the Diabetes Action Plan, to be published later this year. This will set out the actions the NHS will be encouraged to take to improve diversion, increase identification, and improve the management of diabetes both for its own sake and as a critical risk factor in health outcomes generally.
Diabetes will also be included in The Long Term Conditions (LTCs) Outcomes Strategy to be published by the Department, which will be aimed at improving outcomes for all people with LTCs. It will outline how key Government Departments, local authorities, charities and individuals can act in future in order to reduce LTC incidence, and improve outcomes for those with LTCs. We aim to publish the strategy towards the end of 2012; a companion document on diabetes will be published at the same time.
Considerations about diabetes care will also inform the Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) Outcomes Strategy. As diabetes is a major risk factor for CVD, it will be considered as part of the strategy's development.
I fear that for all the listening, the work of the Future Forum, the concerns voiced by health professionals and our constituents who rely on the health service, and the two days of debate in this place, we have ended up on Third Reading with something that is not substantively...

Great play keeps being made about consultation. I do not hear any play being made about the right to be heard or a right of veto, or whatever. CCGs can ask the health and well-being boards what they think; health and well-being boards might make a recommendation, but there is...

The Minister just said that the Secretary of State will have the power directly to remove the management of hospitals or provider organisations. Will that apply both to NHS and private providers? Will the Secretary of State's reach go that far?

How much? I will give way if the Minister tells me exactly how much it is all going to cost. I shall happily sit down; there you go. [Interruption.]

I can categorically say that we have asked the questions over and again and we do not get any answers.

The hon. Member for Central Suffolk and North Ipswich (Dr Poulter), who is also a member of the Select Committee, pointed out that Labour reduced waiting lists and private providers were involved. Does my hon. Friend agree that the general public now face longer waiting lists and more private providers?

Will the Secretary of State be clear on this issue? Can the enhanced tariff that I think he is suggesting Monitor can use to save a provider apply to private companies as well as the NHS?
