Remit
The Working Subgroup will be accountable to the Radiotherapy Activity Planning Steering Group. Its remit will be to agree and present a consensus view, where possible, about the future of Radiation Oncology in Scotland 2010-2014, in response to advances in both therapeutic and other technologies, including the impact on service capacity. It is recognised that it is difficult to predict future practice, particularly in the field of radiation technology where change is rapid. However, in order to obtain a reasoned Scottish consensus, members will be expected to confer with the wider oncology workforce and NHS colleagues to ensure that a comprehensive and inclusive view is obtained. Regional and NHS Board support should be provided to ensure that this is achieved to the highest level possible.
The Working Group will produce a written report by the end of August 2004 for approval and inclusion in the Interim Report to be submitted to the Health Department Management Board by end September 2004.
