That's what I thought.
but they're doing cross secondments with the NHS.

I thought it was, but with independence for setting monetary policy.

The NHS isn't restricted to cross secondments with the public sector. Expertise in the private sector should benefit the NHS in some areas*
* This does not mean I believe the NHS should be privatised.

I've just never seen it offered with a non public sector body in the 4+ years I've worked.
Hmmm, might have a look. Then i could meet you all for secret bashes in London YAYAYAY

this is because it is a public sector body.
just because it's independent doesn't make it non-public sector.

It's owned by HM Treasury and accountable to Parliament, so I think that technically means it isn't public sector.

The treasury is public sector, though. So I'm not sure what you mean.

It really depends upon what criteria you apply to being "public sector" of course.

I think the answer to this is "sort of"

Actually, no, the answer is "yes it is"

This is all very confusing.

"The Bank of England is an independent public organisation, wholly owned by the Treasury Solicitor on behalf of the Government, with independence in setting monetary policy"
