Ministers plan to extend Palantir's £330 million NHS data contract rather than trigger a break clause, the Financial Times reports. A review found removing the US firm's software now would disrupt hospital data, discharges and surgery scheduling. Officials will procure a British alternative aiming to replace Palantir within about two years. Health Secretary Yvette Cooper has faced calls to axe the deal amid fierce criticism.
