This is a Freedom of Information request for information relating to the letter this summer from Dame Emily Lawson and Vin Diwaker, to all trust executives and COOs, asking them to confirm “that [they] plan to adopt the NHS FDP in the next two years”.

I would like to see all emails, documents, attachments, and any other forms of response relating to this request between Central London Community Healthcare NHS Trust and the two senior NHS officials.

Nil return. There has been no communication between CLCH and the 2 senior NHS officials

It is public information that you have been asked to inform the NHS when you “envisage adopting already available nationally commissioned local Products”.

I would like to know when specifically you plan to start adopting the FDP and who you are naming as lead (as is requested in the letter)?

CLCH is a community trust and has not received the letter.  We believe the letter was sent to acute trusts only.  CLCH will use the FDP as mandated nationally for community services.  The Trust have commenced exploratory discussions with colleagues across North West London ICS and NHSE London Region.

I would also like to know what your plans are for how you will maximise the benefits of the Federated Data Platform to deliver better joined-up care for their patients within the next two years (again, asked of you in the above mentioned letter)?

See above.
