The National Commissioning Board for the NHS has granted conditional authorisation to South Reading Clinical Commissioning Group. There are four conditions attached which are organisational in nature and should be satisfied in the next few months so that the South Reading CCG should be in good shape to take on the planning and purchasing of secondary services for the people of South Reading from April 2013. The other CCGs in the Berkshire West have also gained conditional approval, but South Reading has the least number of conditions attached.
