The current term of the Council of PHECC expired at the end of June 2012.

The Council may have up to 17 members. Nine members are nominated by designated bodies and seven more must be clinicians or others with specific interest and expertise in the area. The remaining member is a public interest representative.

I have made the appointments as recommended.
