You said………we did!
You said: that candidates for PPG elected representative role needed to be a
member of an Enfield PPG for at least 6 Months
We did: The Chair of the Governing Body and the lay Chair of the Patient and
Public Engagement Committee considered this request, but agreed a candidate
needed to been a member of an Enfield PPG for at least 3 months.
You said: That there should be 1 vote per PPG and the vote had to be taken by the
chair as long as the chair was a patient; where the chair was a Practice Manager,
the vote had to be made by a nominated patient of that PPG
We did: This was agreed
You said: Confirm the electoral system being use i.e. first past the post
We did: It was agreed that the candidate with the most votes would win the election
You said: If the PPG representative resigned or was removed from office, then the
candidate with the next most votes would complete the term of office left
We did: This was agreed
You said…………..we did!
You said: CCG to ensure that as the Term was for 3 years that there were
suitable clauses in place that could remove a PPG representative whose
behaviour was inappropriate
We did: This matter was reviewed and it was agreed that the safeguards
currently in place were sufficient and in line with those for the rest of the
Governing Body members
You said: You wanted clarity on who was interviewing.
We did: The Chair of the Governing Body and the lay Chair of the Patient and
Public Engagement Committee decided that interviews would be carried out by
the lay Chair of the Patient and Public Engagement Committee, Director of
Service Quality and Integrated Governance and a PPG member from another
area
