Andrew Hopkins, the interim chief executive of the mental health trust for Norfolk and Suffolk, answers the EDP?s 20 questions on its major overhaul of services.
1) Why has Norfolk and Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust not conducted a public consultation over its radical redesign plans?
In February 2013 a joint Norfolk and Suffolk Health Overview and Scrutiny Committee (HOSC) was formed with the purpose of publicly scrutinising the plans contained within the Trust Service Strategy.
The HOSC made 9 recommendations for the Trust and commissioners; one of which was to keep them up to date with the progress of plans and report back to them every 6-9 months. This will happen in September 2013 where our plans again will be scrutinised in public.
