Regulation 6 Termination of tenure of office of non-executive membersI1
England and Wales
A non-executive member may resign at any time by giving notice in writing to the Secretary of State.
Where a non-executive member other than the chair is appointed to be the chair, that member’s tenure of office as such a non-executive member terminates when the appointment as chair takes effect.
Paragraph (2) does not apply if—
the appointment as chair is on an interim basis; and
the period of the member’s term of office as chair falls wholly within the period of the member’s term of office as non-executive member other than chair.
A non-executive member’s tenure of office ceases upon being notified in writing by the Secretary of State—
that the Secretary of State is satisfied that a condition specified in paragraph 3(3) of Schedule 1 to the Health and Social Care Act 2008 (conditions for removal of non-executive members) is met in relation to that member; and
of the reason why the Secretary of State is so satisfied.
