Ed: APPG on ME Inquiry into NHS service provision for people with ME: Draft terms of reference

During the last meeting of the All Party Parliamentary Group on ME (held on 8 October 2008) Dr Des Turner MP, the group’s chair, presented a draft Terms of Reference for the “APPG Inquiry into NHS service provision for people with ME” – a project Dr Turner had proposed at the group’s previous meeting, in July.

Between the July and October meetings, Dr Turner met with patient organisation reps to discuss his proposed inquiry, but the ME community, itself, has been marginalised from influencing the inquiry’s remit and from the drawing up of its terms of reference.  The terms of reference were presented at the meeting in October, where it was agreed that this document would be accepted, in principle, subject to minor amendments.
