The CIEH consultation response to the Minister – LIVE!
The extended closing date for submission of responses to the Governments proposals for the new Public Health Service (PHS) in England is on Thursday 31 March 2011.
Following on from our Public Health White Paper consultation forums, the CIEH is pleased to announce that Anne Milton, Minister for Public Health will be visiting our headquarters at Chadwick Court, London.
This is a unique opportunity on the closing day of the consultation period to hear the CIEH present its response and key recommendations, and to hear the Minister’s response on how she sees environmental health professionals contributing to her vision. Will this event reinforce her view? Find out at this live event and ask a question direct to the Minister.
