Will the Cabinet Secretary publish the terms of reference for the Independent Oversight Panel established to oversee the Tawel Fan related follow up work at the Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board?
I am happy to make available the Terms of Reference (ToR) for the Oversight Panel and attach a copy for your information.
In relation to meeting with individual Assembly Members, you will appreciate the purpose of the Panel is to provide oversight to ensure the process for the completion and publication of the reports resulting from the HASCAS investigation and Ockendon review are concluded in a timely way and to ensure impartiality. The time allotted to panel members is 2/3 days a month on delivering the key tasks as outlined in the terms of reference. Meetings with individual Assembly Members are not appropriate in relation to the role of the Panel and the time allotted.
The Panel has agreed to meet with North Wales Assembly Members and Members of the Health and Social Care Committee in a group session to explain its purpose and terms of reference and invites have been sent for sessions scheduled for the 24 May and 28 June.
Should you have an issue that you wish to raise with the Panel that relates to their remit then you should write to the Panel at: c/o Independent Oversight Panel Secretariat, Welsh Government Office, Sarn Mynach, Llandudno Junction, Conwy. LL31 9LZ
