NHS National Programme for IT - report of Commons' Public Accounts Committee to be published tomorrow [17 April]

After a nine-month investigation the Public Accounts Committee is expected to publish a hard-hitting report on the NHS's National Programme for IT [NPfIT] tomorrow [17 April].

Parliamentary convention is that the government gives a written response to reports of the committee within two months. But the government may regard the programme as too politically sensitive to let a report of the Public Accounts Committee stand without an immediate comment.

So we would expect a response from the government that firmly establishes it in denial mode.
