Brian Ferguson: Treasury should end its obsession with public health spending 09 June 2021 By the government’s logic, NHS preventative services should have to show they will save councils money, writes the professor in the Department of Health Sciences at the University of York and  former chief economist of Public Health England. When the Treasury recently emphasised its need for data to allow “effective challenge” of how public health funding is spent, the public health community rolled its eyes and thought ‘here we go again’. In his comments to the House of Lords public services committee in April, chief secretary to the Treasury Steve Barclay also highlighted how last year the prime minister “asked Andrea Leadsom to do a review of the earlier years in order to look at whether the public health grant could be spent more effectively in certain areas”.
