  2. Following our motion to Health Conference that the union should facilitate joint forums, joint conferences and local discussion groups to discuss the whole question of safeguarding the future of the NHS, the AGM proposes that the branch organises for such events this year the aim of which to raise the level of discussion on these questions in a year when we are facing transition to PCTs, the further prospect of PFI, NHS concordat with the private sector and so on.
