Section 8 – Publication of section 6 summary and section 7 report
24.This section requires NHS bodies subject to the duty in section 7 to publish the reports prepared under that section.
25.In the case of a local health board, the report must include the summary prepared under section 6 of the reports provided to the local health board by primary care providers providing services on its behalf. The local health board will therefore be responsible for publishing information relevant to the duty of candour in respect of its own services and the services provided by primary care services for its area. This will mean that all of the information about the duty of candour in respect of a local health board area will be published together.
