How we make decisions

Board Meetings

Public meetings of the Board of NHS North East Essex CCG are held regularly. Members of the public are welcome to attend and observe the meetings.

Members of the public wishing to attend the meetings can find copies of the agenda and other papers on our Board Meetings page around a fortnight before the date of the Board meeting. 

From time to time, the Board may need to consider agenda items which are confidential and cannot be discussed in public. If this is the case, a private session will be held at the meeting, from which the public will be excluded.

Download previous Board meeting agendas from the Board Meetings page.

Patient and Public Involvement

We aspire to be a CCG that involves you in everything we do – from planning and commissioning (buying) services to developing our plans for future healthcare.

Members of the public are encouraged to attend Board meetings and are invited to submit questions to the Board in advance.
