Regulation 9 Further action following a review

Paragraphs (2) to (4) below apply where an NHS body has been the subject of a clinical governance review or of a general review other than a national service review.

Following the conclusion of a review, the NHS body concerned shall, with the assistance of the Commission, prepare a written statement of the action which it proposes to take in the light of the report made by the Commission.

A statement prepared under paragraph (2) shall be subject to approval in the case of a Local Health Board, a Special Health Authority or an NHS trust, by the National Assembly.

Before deciding whether to approve a statement prepared under paragraph (2), the National Assembly shall consult the Commission.
