From 2012 CSO is revising its advisory committees into a single committee. See the announcement for details. This page will be updated in due course to reflect the changes.
The Health Services and Population Research Committee (until January 2010 called Health Services Research Committee) comprises prominent men and women from the research community and NHSScotland, as well as Chief Scientist Office staff and consumer representatives. This specialist standing committee provides advice on the detailed programmes which seek to stimulate and evaluate high quality research into the operation of the health service in Scotland.
The committee normally meets three times each year.
Minutes of meetings are available as follows to download. Note that if the minutes you require are not on the list you can request these from CSO.
