Our CCG, towards the high end in terms of population covered and staff employed, is already having to recruit to newly created new posts, as they seriously underestimated the staff required to manage some functions. The size of some staff portfolios, particularly at 8a and above, have proven untenable even in the few months since preparing for transfer and post-CCG launch.

Particularly galling as some of the new posts are essentially roles that were made redundant during the transfer from PCT, but those staff, with the attendant corporate memory, are unlikely to return.
