Annotation | Partnership arrangements have been available since April 2000, initially under section 31 of the Health Act 1999, and continued under section 75 of the National Health Service Act 2006. Many of the problems of governance of Health Act partnerships arise from a poor understanding of the legal basis for the partnership arrangements. This article examines the legal framework and focuses on some of the areas of misunderstanding: commissioning; public access and scrutiny; and the distinction between partnership boards and care trust boards.
