Meetings of East Staffordshire Clinical Commissioning Group’s Governing Body are held in public. A list of forthcoming meetings is provided below. The details of times and locations will be confirmed, and advertised on this page, at least 3-5 working days prior to each meeting. Agendas and papers for the next or previous meetings can be downloaded from the Governing Body Papers page.

The six Governing Bodies across Staffordshire and Stoke-on-Trent have agreed to meet in common in order to make strategic decisions that affect the whole population. The locations of these meetings have been spread across the county in order to offer access for everyone interested in attending. The meetings held in public will be alternated with confidential and Organisational Development meetings for Governing Body members to more effectively understand and work towards meeting patient needs in a rapidly changing landscape.

Papers for the meetings held in public will be available a week before the meeting. We hope you can join us to witness public decision making in action and you will be able to ask up to three questions at the end of the meeting.

We understand that this offers fewer meetings for people to attend, however, as discussion about local health needs and how are to be met will take place at the new Divisional Committees, we are making plans to also hold these in public. In addition, we are exploring how we could better make use of digital technology to extend the meetings in public to an online audience. A structure of the CCGs' formal committees that feed into the Governing Body meetings can be found here .

Our Primary Care Commissioning Committees are also held in public in three areas across the county each month. This is where Governing Body members consider and make decisions about General Practice. The dates and papers can be found here

NOTICE: In light of the ongoing Government guidance around managing coronavirus, all upcoming Governing Body Meetings in Common for the six CCGs will, until further notice, be hosted virtually.
