> In October 2002, the Finance Minister of the Welsh Assembly Government announced a substantial increase in future resources to be allocated to health in Wales.
> It was made clear that the extra resources had to be allied to improved performance and modernisation of health and social care services. Concurrently, a team was established to review health and social care in Wales and to examine how resources should be translated into reform and improved performance. The team was advised by Derek Wanless who was the author, for the Chancellor of the Exchequer, of Securing our Future Health: Taking a Long Term View ("The Wanless Report"). The team included representatives from the NHS, the National Audit Office and the Welsh Assembly Government. It reported to a project board and drew on the expertise of many people and organisations - and on that of an expert reference group - and undertook a widespread consultation exercise. The report was published in July 2003.
