DHSSPS CENTRAL ADVISORY COMMITTEES
Please see the attached covering the queries you had regarding Central
Advisory Committees established under Articles 24 and 25 of the Health &
Personal Social Services (Northern Ireland) Order 1972.
The Central Advisory Committees (along with the relevant Article of the
Order under which they were established) are as follows:
1. Laboratory Services Advisory Committee (Art. 25)
2. Clinical Imaging Services Advisory Committee (Art. 25)
3. Clinical Engineering and Medical Physics Services Advisory Committee
(Art. 25)

Their publication schemes are essentially all the same (with the title of
the Committee changed as appropriate) therefore I have attached only one

Details of the terms of reference, role, membership and remit, etc for
each Committee is attached below.
