Joint review of governance arrangements We're currently working with Healthcare Inspectorate Wales (HIW) on a joint review of quality governance arrangements at Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board. The urgency of this planned work was heightened following the publication of a highly critical report on maternity services by the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists and Royal College of Midwives in April 2019. The review will look at how Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board’s overall governance arrangements support delivery of high quality, safe and effective services. It will include a specific focus on arrangements within the surgical department. We will be completing fieldwork within the health board in July and August 2019, and a joint report will be published in autumn 2019.
