There is a lack of clarity over what the money saved in the NHS in England has been spent on, say MPs.

The NHS is in the middle of an efficiency drive with savings expected to be reinvested in front-line care and making services more productive.

More than ?10bn has been saved in the first two years with another ?4bn forecast in 2013-14.

But the Health Select Committee said there was little evidence it had been used wisely.

The cross-party group of MPs said the plan had been to transform the way services were delivered to make the NHS sustainable in the long-term.
