NHS

A beneficiary of the NHS’s National Programme for IT, has been ASE Consulting, who received £16.4 million in 2006/2007, and a total of £46 million since 2003.

However, The Eye has learnt that the chief technology officer for the National Programme 2002/2005 was none other than Alan McNeil, ASE main shareholder and boss. In effect, he paid himself the money. The National Audit Office is now looking at the matter, and no doubt will be returning to it later
