HC Deb 04 December 1997 vol 302 c343W
Mr. Flight

To ask the Secretary of State for Health when he last met representatives of community health councils; and what matters were discussed. [18300]

Mr. Milburn

My right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Health met with representatives of the Association of Community Health Councils for England and Wales (ACHCEW) on 1 July 1997 and discussed a range of National Health Service matters which they raised.

My noble Friend the Baroness Jay, Minister of State, has agreed to meet representatives of ACHCEW on a six monthly basis and expects to meet them again early in the new year.
