The information requested is in attached table due to it’s size.

The £38 billion increase in Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) / Integrated Care Board (ICB) direct commissioning spend between 2019-20 and 2023-24 budget reflects the record settlement for health and social care funding confirmed at the 2021 Spending Review.

As 2022-23 accounts are not yet published, the figures for 2022-23 are the budget for that year. We will be able to provide 2022-23 final outturn once NHS England Annual Accounts are finalised.
