TellThemWhatYouThink doesn't work very well anymore

This site was set up in 2008, to help people find Government consultations more easily, and to show that it could be done: quickly and easily. The site has never been funded as such, and has relied on volunteers for maintenance and support. It hasn't had much maintenance recently and this shows: some consultations can't be found and some functions don't work as they should. We are currently seeking funding for a new version of TellThemWhatYouThink.

In the meantime, you can search a limited number of departments for open consultations at the Directgov Consultation Finder.

Increasing democratic legitimacy in health

Consultation published by The Department of Health View original »

This consultation builds on the proposals in the White Paper to increase local democratic legitimacy in health. This will be achieved through local authorities: i) being given a stronger role in supporting patient choice and ensuring effective local voice ii) taking on local public health improvement functions, and iii) promoting more effective NHS, social care and public health commissioning arrangements.

This document links closely to the consultation on commissioning for patients. Taken together, these two documents set out the strategy for commissioning of health, care and wellbeing. They set out how the new system will work together to provide improved outcomes for patients, users and the public.

Timeframe
