Blackburn, Hyndburn and Ribble Valley were divided into localities before
the white paper. Hyndburn was one locality (pop ~70,000).
The current (joint) locality commissioning team consisting of 3FHs and
3nonFHs have proposed a PCG at level three to East Lancs Health Authority.
We await its response.

How active are any of you in PCGs? We've just had a meeting organised by
our LMC at which we discussed the possibility of PCGs of less than 100k
population. Is anyone else contemplating their own groups yet?
