Purpose of the consultation
Purpose of the consultation
The

Committee is undertaking an inquiry into the general principles of the Health and Social Care (Quality and
Engagement) (Wales) Bill.
Further details about the Bill and the accompanying Explanatory Memorandum can
be found on the Bill page.
Terms of reference
To
consider—
- the general principles of the Health and
Social Care (Quality and Engagement) (Wales) Bill and the extent to which
it will contribute to improving and protecting the health, care and
well-being of the population of Wales by,
- placing quality considerations at the
heart of all the NHS in Wales,
- strengthening the voice of citizens
across health and social services,
- placing a duty of candour on NHS
organisations, and
- strengthening the governance
arrangements for NHS Trusts;
- any potential barriers to the
implementation of the provisions and whether the Bill takes account of
them;
- whether there are any unintended
consequences arising from the Bill;
- the financial implications of the Bill
(as set out in Part 2 of the Explanatory Memorandum);
- the appropriateness of the powers in the
Bill for Welsh Ministers to make subordinate legislation (as set out in
Chapter 5 of Part 1 of the Explanatory Memorandum).
