Epsom and St Helier University Hospital NHS Trust: Future for Acute Services

Councillor Liz Frost, Disclosable Pecuniary Interest: On the grounds of her employment with the NHS. Councillor Liz Frost informed the meeting that her current employment within NHS England could be said to give rise to a disclosable pecuniary interest under the Council’s Local Code of Conduct for Members.  However the Council’s Standards Committee had discussed this and did not consider that, in most circumstances, this would damage the public’s confidence in the authority’s business and, for the avoidance of doubt, she had been granted a dispensation by the Standards Committee to speak and vote on matters related to health.
