In response to mounting pressure for greater transparency
on declaration of interests within the NHS, in October 2016, NHS England released
a consultation document for 'Managing Conflicts of Interest'.
In February 2017 NHS England followed up and published
'Managing Conflicts of Interest in the NHS, Guidance for Staff and
Organisations', which sets down guidance for all NHS Organisations to follow as
from 1st June 2017. Our Trust’s Code of
Business Conduct has been updated as a consequence.
This site is a secure area that deals with all aspects of
the guidance. Our staff can login to this website and fully comply with the
guidance, and members of the public can view the published information.
