The Board of NHS England is committed to openness and transparency, and conducts as much of its business as possible in a session that members of the public are welcome to attend and observe, subject to available space. The meeting is broadcast live.

The Board meeting, although held in public, is not a public meeting and as such there is no opportunity for the public to ask questions.

Whilst there is no opportunity for questions to be raised in the meeting itself, members of the public are welcome to submit any questions they may have to england.boardattendance@nhs.net, and a written response will be provided.

The Board also holds meetings in closed session where confidential items of business are discussed.
