Regional Councils
September 2008
The 2007 ARM passed a resolution instructing that regional councils should be established in all parts in England. The boundaries of Regional Councils in England coincide with those of SHAs, so that the councils have a clear local identity. The exception being Southern Regional Council which covers two SHAs: South East Coast & South Central SHA.
Regional Councils are open to all BMA members and provide a forum where matters of regional interest and issues affecting the profession can be discussed across divisions and inclusive of all branches of practice.
