16. Morbid Obesity Surgery Services https://www.gov.uk/government/consultations/transferring- services-from-nhs-england-to-ccgs Support for CCGs and monitoring Ministers have requested guarantees from NHS England for national commissioning guidance – CCGs would be mandated to have regard to national commissioning guidelines Enhanced role of the Clinical Reference Group (NHS England would continue to commission morbid obesity services for children)

17. Consultation Questions https://www.gov.uk/government/consultations/transferring-services-from-nhs-england-to-ccgs Are the proposals NHS England has made for producing commissioning guidance to support Clinical Commissioning Groups in taking on the commissioning responsibility for morbid obesity surgery services appropriate? Is there any additional support that CCGs might need from NHS England to enable them to take on this new role and ensure morbid obesity surgery services are commissioned and delivered to a high standard? How long might this support be needed for? What ongoing monitoring arrangements should be put in place and who should be responsible for ensuring that the transfer is effective and is working well? Subject to the safeguards and support described in this document, do you think it is feasible to transfer commissioning responsibility for morbid obesity surgery services to Clinical Commissioning Groups from 1 April 2015?
