National award holders can apply to be members of ACCEA sub-committees by contacting
the secretariat. Applications should be accompanied by a brief CV. All posts must
be publicised and ACCEA has the discretion to do so in the most effective and
proportionate way. ACCEA may seek nominations from appropriate organisations;

with the officers of the relevant sub-committee. ACCEA will maintain a list
of successful applicants who will be called on to fill vacancies which arise.
They will be selected to maintain the balance of their committee in terms of speciality,
hospital type, geography, gender and ethnicity. Note for non-national
award holders who wish to apply to be members of ACCEA sub-committees

sub-committee has, among its medical members, some who do not hold a national
ACDA or ACCEA award. This note explains how such consultants can volunteer for
consideration as members of their relevant sub-committee. Medical members
should be experienced consultants in good standing who already hold local CEA

or have been involved in the NHS. ACCEA will also seek a citation from the applicant's
Chief Executive. Applicants may be interviewed. ACCEA will maintain a list
of successful applicants who will be called on to fill vacancies which arise.

Code
of Practice:
The Code of Practice for the Advisory Committee on Clinical
Excellence Awards and its sub-committees, has been written with regard to the
seven principles of public life identified by the Nolan Committee in their First
Report on Standards in Public Life in May 1995 and subsequently endorsed by the
Government. Like others who serve the public, members of ACCEA and its subcommittees
should follow the principles. Members of ACCEA are expected to comply at all times
with the Code of Practice. |
