1.  Future Hospital Funding Strategy

The Panel received a copy of a draft amendment to P.130/2016 being worked on by officers in the Treasury and Resources Department. It was noted that the draft amendment addressed many of the points around control of contingency expenditure which the Panel was considering lodging in a separate amendment in its own name. It was agreed that it might not be necessary for the Panel to lodge its amendment if a suitable agreement  with  the  Minister  for  Treasury  and  Resources  could  be reached.

The  Panel  also  discussed  the  possibility  of  lodging  a  separate amendment to P.130/2016 in relation to utilising the Strategic Reserve instead of issuing a Bond. It was noted that a request had been sent to the Treasury  and  Resources  Department  to  provide  some financial modelling of this scenario and it was agreed to consider this further at a future meeting once the information had been received.

Following a request made during the Public Hearing on 20th March 2017, the Panel received information from the Department in relation to returns on the Strategic Reserve and Common Investment Fund. The Officers were asked to request a more detailed report from the Department.
