Abstract: During nine turbulent years, the most enduring features observed in the landscape of the National Programme for IT have been continual change and uncertainties. The Government’s new announce-ment of the disbanding of the National Pro-gramme’s Board clarifies its plans to accelerate the Programme’s end, but leaves the landscape of NHS IT in England strewn with uncertainties.
