Dr. Murrison

To ask the Secretary of State for Health how many times a year the Board of the Advisory Committee on Distinction Awards is scheduled to meet; and when it last met. [175345]

Dr. Ladyman

The last meeting of the Advisory Committee on Distinction Awards was on 7 October 2003. It has since been succeeded by the Advisory Committee on Clinical Excellence Awards, which convenes annually. 13 regional sub-committees in England and one in Wales support the central committee. They meet two or three times a year.
