In a message dated 15/3/98 19:36:19, Trims writes
<< Every PCG will be headed by an "Accountable Officer" - this is the
person who will be accountable for the "rationing" decisions and the
clinical and financial performance of the PCG. There will also be a
person responsible for "Clinical Governance".
The choice you have is whether you are happy for these people to be
appointed managers or whether you would prefer democratically elected
colleagues who are willing to participate and represent your views.
I would rather have Doug Black than one of our HA colleagues.

Having lurked on GP-UK for months I now find myself compelled to write to say
firstly that Trimble's choice is the reality we now all face and secondly the
verb 'to have ' has several meanings and clearly means 'to choose' in this
context!
Doug Black
